1ct Princess in WF Legato Sleek Line Pave - DONE!!

[ron_c]

Hi All!

A few weeks back, I posted on here to get some feedback on some stones...that thread can be found here... https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/newbie-ready-to-purchase-cant-decide-which-diamond-pls-help.106709/ I finally decided on a stone thanks to all the help of everyone here.

Now, the e-ring I bought for my gf is finally done and will be shipping today!

I will be posting more photos once I pick up the ring. Sorry, but hand shots will have to wait a few weeks as we are leaving for Mexico next Monday, and that is where I plan to propose!

Here are the juicy details....

Diamond -

1CT ES Princess from WF
http://www.whiteflash.com/princess/Princess-cut-diamond-1231736.htm#
Color: F
. Report: GIA
. Shape: Princess
. Carat: 1.00
. Depth %: 76.4
. Table %: 63
. Girdle: Medium to Very Thick
. Measurements: 5.41-5.29X4.04

I chose to set this diamond in the Legato Sleek Line Pave WF setting(size 5) since in March they will be releasing a matching wedding band.

I am soooooo excited to get this ring. I can wait to see it in person. It feels kinda strange being a guy and being this excited about a diamond! I guess most of the excitement stems from the upcoming proposal! Thanks to all who helped me find an diamond and setting that was right for me. My future FI will really make this ring shine! I'll post more photos as I get them!


Thanks!
Ron

Thanks! The proposal will be soon. Next Monday(3/2), we are heading to a small island, Isla Mujeres, off the coast of Cancun for the week. I have a private dinner on the beach setup for Monday night and plan on proposing then. It will be really hard to keep it a secret for the entire week though!

[ron_c]

Thanks all!! I picked up the ring yesterday and I am very happy!

I can''t believe how much it sparkles! I am going to attach a couple more photos, mainly of the box I got from WF. This is the only area I am slightly not happy. On the inside of the box, it has Whiteflash.com. I am just unsure about proposing with a ringbox that says .com on it. I would have no issues with just Whiteflash, but for some reason, adding the .com just makes if feel less personal and just an "virtual" internet company.

So my question is this...what do you all think? I like the ring box otherwise. Should I just propose with this box, or go looking for a different one?

Thanks!

Ron
