Here''s what I''m considering to go with my ering -

First - pic of ering - it''s an Ingwer Xprong in white gold:

Band Option #1

Option 2

Option 3

I like option #1. I like it because it covers all the finger you can see, which I''m not sure #2 would do. I also like prong-set better than channel-set.
 
Option 4

I posted a bit too early, but I still like #1 the best and then #4 second best.
 
if I go with option 1 or 4, I will do 2 bands - one above, one below.

If I go with option 2 or 3, I will go with 1 band, but higher tcw in the single band.

I am having such a horrible time making this decision, I think because I''m afraid of taking away from, instead of enhancing the diamond that I have.

I have gone to a few local stores to see styles with my ring, but I get comments about my watch, then my ring, etc... I just feel like I''m being sized up for a "Hey, looky, this one''s wearing Movado, has a nice diamond, look at those earrings, and her husband wears Movado too - oh yeah, I can rape them for $$ amount, i''ll use this approach on them!" type thing.

Ugh... so unappealing... but it''s so difficult to get into the experience and to make a decision when you''re under that kind of scrutiny from the second you walk in the door, you know?

I wish I was born with a more patient "shopping gene" - my sister was blessed with it, not me.
 
Thanks Addy - do you think I should do 2 bands or a single band, if I go with 1 or 4? i''m really thinking 2.
 
I vote for #4. I''d have to see them to know if I liked one or two bands better. Which do YOU like?!

And find a shop where you feel more comfortable!
 
I like #4 first, and then #1.
 
I like #2 or #4 (with 2 bands on either side).

#1 is nice but I would be worried that the because of the way the side of the ring is it would rub to much against the smooth side of your ring.

I think I would go somewhere and try some on. You may be surprised that the style you like the best doesn'' t look good though!
 
I prefer #2,then #3. I think #1 may not be comfortable to wear.
 
#1 and #4
 
#1 all the way, baby! Wow - that''s a knockout ring! I wish that style went with my Ering!!
 
I think #3 compliments the ering. #1 I think would compete with it.
 
I would most likely get #1 (or even as an eternity).

I do like #2 as well but would want the shanks the same width. I like that the diamonds give more of a scalloped edge than the #1 does. I like #2 very well but #1 a bit better; either of them would look great.

I would not go with #4 only because I would not want all three that thick... I think the center diamond would not extend past those two bands which is something that would bother me personally but others may like the look.

I wouldn't go with #3 because if I wanted diamonds across the finger I would prefer #1 or 2 (channel set rounds isn't in my personal top favorites).
 
I like #1, but I agree that it doesn''t look like it would be all that comfortable.

#3 gets my vote...2 of them would be TDF!
 
Thank you so much everyone for your thoughts and opinions (if there are others out there wanting to share, please do - i''m hoping to have a decision made by the end of the week and finally pull the trigger on a band this weekend).

I''ll let you know what I decide and post pics when it arrives :-)
 
I decided! I just ordered 2 of #3!! I''m SO excited, and let me just tell you - i worked with Celina at Whiteflash - she''s wonderful!

I''m absolutely positive I gave her migraines over this, I really have struggled with this decision because I wanted it to be the "right" band(s). She was so helpful, understanding, and patient... she deserves an award for putting up with my indecisive babbling and fears.

I''ll certainly be using Whiteflash again in the future.

I''ll post hand picks when I receive the bands :-)
