Finally, after four months of research and help from many on Pricescope, my E-ring is done !

Many thanks to MrsSalvo and Blueroses (Bluenose to me ) for helping me find the setting. And especially to Ukieza (my buddy Jason) for bringing a dream to life.

It took me a month to learn about diamonds. A few weeks to decide on the setting and over two months for the ring to be created (twice I refused the ring offered).

I love my girlfriend and the ring had to be exactly as I wanted it to be. I would not settle for anything less. 

Andrea has often said that she loved me but, I must share a comment my Baby said to me over the weekend: ' you know when you hear about an elderly couple and when one has died, the other soon died afterwards ? That's how I would feel if I ever was to lose you'.

Oh man, we were at a restaurant and tears were flowing. I still get choked up. I never expected this and it hit me like a cannonball at full speed.

Thank you all !!!

Paul, all I can do is smile!

Congrats. I'm assuming she liked the ring? I'm with everyone else. We need hand pictures. I'd also like to see how it lines up with the wedding band. It looks absolutely stunning Paul! Sure looks like it was worth the wait and telling them to fix it twice!

Congrats!!

Wow, just wow.  That ring is beyond gorgeous.  Her comment to you shows why you went to so much trouble.  She's a keeper.  So are you BTW.
Congrats and best wishes to you both.

To answer your question and let everyone else see the trouble that Paul went through, here is a link to Paul's (Iceberg's) original thread. He spent a ton of time getting to know about diamonds and trying to decide what type of setting he wanted. He had some help from the pricescope community. Help such as people helping him find pictures of settings to creating a really rough presentation of the finished product.

Paul's Original Thread "Please Help !!!!"

I feel pricescope is a great community to be part of. This community was very helpful for me when I was doing research for my fiance's e-ring and I think many more "clueless guys" will be continuing to trip into this wonderful community just as Paul and I did. Thanks Paul for letting me help you out and adding my contributions back to this wonderful community!
