Hi all,
After flipping through every page of the Show Me Your Diamond Studs thread again and again, I knew I just had to get a pair of diamond studs (my first!). I searched for a pair for months and months that would give me the most diameter within my budget and finally found a pair of Brian Gavin Signature stones that fit the bill, a J SI1 and VS1 that were about 4.9mm each. When I found the stones, they were brand new stock and there were no images posted yet, just the measurements... so I bookmarked the pages and immediately contacted Jamie the next day to ask about them. She assured me that Brian deemed them to be eye clean, and later that evening the AGS reports were posted, as well as the ASETs. By then, I had already grown so attached to them that I knew I had to snap them up!
For a while, I debated between getting the bezel or martini cocktail settings... but in the end I went with the bezels and decided I'd go with martinis when I go for an upgrade lol. I love the bezels, they really make the stones pop and add an extra bit of diameter without being obvious. I put in the order last week and received them this Wednesday
The only thing that could make these studs better is to go up another carat hehe. At first, I was worried about how warm Js would look but they face up incredibly white. I do notice the color when looking at them from the side, but head on all you see is fiery white.
Edited to reattach photos as they didn't go through properly the first time.

Beautiful! Congrats! The bezels coordinate beautifully with your DBTY necklace as well!
