I wanted to get people''s advice on this because we''ve gotten conflicting advice from the jewelry stores we''ve been to. My fiancee and I have agreed on a Scott Kay setting for her engagement ring, but we''re a little concerned about the 6-8 week turnaround time, particularly since we still have to settle on a specific diamond.
One idea we were kicking around to speed things up was to order the setting first and then finalize the diamond while we were waiting for it to come in. The concern we''ve heard was that the setting needs to be custom-made for the diamond, so it is really better to have it ready beforehand. In stores we''ve heard that it is an issue and that it isn''t, so we''re wondering if it is just the kind of thing salesperson says to try to get us to commit to a diamond as well or is it a significant concern we should be worrying about.
Thanks.
