Eternity Band Upgrade Size Question

[baby monster]

In my opinion two factors affect comfort. First is the size of the diamonds and how high they stand off your finger. That is partly from ct. weight and partly from the mount and how low it sets. The other factor is the quality of the prong work on the ring. Here is where I do believe you get what you pay for. I owned a ring with poor prong work and it was very uncomfortable. My rings with good prong work are so comfortable. So try on lots of rings to make sure the style of the mount is right for you.

I second the comment on quality of metalwork. Fit and finish are essential for comfort. I've tried on so much jewelry, even high-end jewelry, that had sharp edges and prongs that caught on everything. The fact that you can't feel the piece when buying online is more of an issue when judging quality of the metal finish than when looking at diamond specs. But all the great vendors here have good return policies so that should not stop you from buying online.

Owies Nana - Thanks for the feedback. I saw the Memoire in the Neiman's catalog and liked the design. It's basically the same style (I believe) that everyone who has responded to me has (but from IDJ or Facets). Did you get your setting from a local jeweler or an online jeweler?

I got my band from a local jeweler before my PS days. Now when I have my 40th anniversary, I will probably ask Yekutiel if he can replicate it exactly (with larger stones, of course).
