of your E-ring?
 
Yes! He didn't really want anything to do with any of it, and still doesnt though
 
Oh I thought you were asking does he know the 4 Cs in general...

I had this conversation with him when looking for a matched pair of diamonds for earrings:

Him: "Look at this, what do you think of these?"
Me: "I don't know, do you have any information on the cut?"
Him: "I think it's Si1."
Me: *facepalm*

So I think I can safely say the 4Cs are a mystery to him.

(He does know that my sapphire is blue, unheated, 2 cts, and eyeclean. He did not know until recently that it was cushion cut, which you'd think would be obvious.)
 
Well, our last name starts w C, so he definitely knows "5" of them!!! lol!!

I just asked him what the 4 C's are and he got 75% on the quiz!
 
Yes he does.
 
My "husband" don't know nuttin.
When I try to teach him his eyes roll back in his head and he says he feels a migraine coming on.

But he sure LOVES him his bling!!!
 
Yes. He chose my stone, and did a great job.
 
Absolutely.

I'm sure he doesn't even know there are 4 c's.
When we got engaged, he told me the wrong carat weight.
To be fair, he did not buy my stone, his grandmother had given it to him, years before. So, he never had to even think about it.
I've always thought it was crazy that the engineer/math guy got the weight wrong, though.
:wink2:
 
TGal, I'm married to his twin brother.

Well played.
 
I just asked him if he remembered what the 4 Cs of my ring are, since he picked it out, and he came close:

His responses:
Carat: 0.76
Cut: Um, its the one that's above very good... Um (google's "GIA cut grades")... Excellent?
Color: E
Clarity: VS1

Actual:
Carat: 0.79
Cut: Excellent
Color: E
Clarity: VS2
 
I'm guessing...no.. he knows the size.. but that is probably where the C's end and the ?'s begin....

DF... he bought a toy... but he did not buy a Camaro.. he did buy a car though.. so no watch for him anytime soon...

lol, thanks Sharon. ;))
 
Yes he does know. He often says he knows more about my diamonds and jewelry than he ever wanted to know.
 
He got pretty close, not bad. He knows every last spec on his cars. hehe

Him:
.8 something? 3? 4? 6? no? really? 2? 1? 7? Oh crap? Seriously? 8? Ohhhh
Princess of Hearts (me: clapping with glee! :appl: ) - let's give him that, they're pretty much all ideal. hehe
I something? I2? (me: shaking head) I1?
D color? (me: shaking head) F? no? E!!!

hehe He's learning...
 
I doubt it. I don't either, though. It's an emerald cut, and 1ct, is all I can recall. Any other of my rings I could tell you in detail, and he probably could too, but that one is just, I don't know....there? Part of the furniture? ;))
 
My DH isn't too bad - he knows that it's an eyeclean antique cushion, between 1-2 carats, and is 'white enough.' He likes to trumpet that Leon made the setting...a detail he actually remembers, so he uses it frequently! :lol:
 
He remembered it was an F.

That is all. :shock:
 
no, he picked it out, but of course he didnt pay any attention, i have told him multiple times, but since it doesnt interest him he doesnt care :rolleyes:
 
No, but he does know "happy wife happy life" and that's good enough for me! I do all of the jewelry shopping for me in this family. :cheeky:
 
Yes, my DH does know the 4 C's, he surprises me sometimes. Although, I think he would be a bit reluctant to make any big purchases without my input. =)
