E-ring; thanks GoG!

[WRXdriver]

So I popped the question this weekend after receiving the ring from Good Old Gold a little more than a week ago.

Answer was "Yes!" and the ring looks AMAZING.

Good Old Gold was great to work with and gave me a more than fair price; they made the internet buying experience smooth and easy. My local B&M jeweler (I tried using them, I really did) was no comparison, and not 1/10th as helpful despite multiple visits.

Attached are some pics that really do not do the ring justice due to my poor close-up photography equipment/skills.

[Todd07]

Congrats on the engagement

It's kinda mean to post your great pics without including the spec

 

[glitterata]

Sweet! I'd say yes to that too.

 

[gingerBcookie]

ditto to all of the above!

Fantastic diamond and ring!

Can you tell us the stats?

 

[Jennifer5973]

[Patty]

gorgeous solitaire WRX! Congrats to you both

i may have missed it, but what are the specs on that baby?

 

[WRXdriver]

Sorry for not including the stats earlier; Here's what I remember off the top of my head, I can supplement once I'm home w/ the appraisal.

It's a round brilliant-cut solitaire
Weight: 0.918 carat
Cut: AGS 0 (Ideal), it's also H&A branded; Polish & Symmetry also Ideal
Color: AGS 0.5 (E)
Clarity: AGS 5 (SI1) - It is eye perfect, really only a single cloud in the thing

I can't remember the measurements right now, but I can update w/ them if people are interested.

My independent appraiser said it was conservatively graded, especially in the color & clarity categories, so as you might imagine I'm very happy.

The engagement story I'll have to see what my fiance thinks before posting; sorry folks...
