Excel tiffany channel set replica, sparkle?

[gemini19th81]

Dear Pricescopers, thanks for the fantastic forum! I wanted to reply to an old thread about the excel tiffany channel replica but it was closed. I saw the original tiffany yesterday and was blown away by the sparkle, maybe it was the lighting, maybe not. But i was shocked that I couldn't easily see the individual round diamonds in the channel. Is this typical for channel sets? Pictures online don't do them justice as you see these big gaps when zoomed a million times. To those who have bought the excel diamond version of the tiffany channel set, how is the sparkle? do you see the individual stones easily? the craftmanship and would you buy it again? I'm heavily debating purchasing this ring as I think the original looks amazing, but isn't wallet friendly. thanks!

I couldn't have been happier with the product!! We were actually in Tiffanys yesturday looking at earrings and the sales rep commented how she loved the ring and said the diamond looked incredible. It really gives a HUGE amount of sparkle and shine. We are going bacl to excel to get the matching channel set wedding band we love it so much. We were trying channel set bands on the other day as well, and wow do the pair shine!!!! 100% recommend. Can't say enough great things. The detail work is great and the ring is stunning!! The stones are 3 pointers, and you can see them, but remember they are only 3 points. You couls always ask them to make a slightly larger ring and put in bigger side stones if the size of the sides is important. Some of their pics online show a 4 stone side channel, and they look bigger.....

I just wanted to add that I felt the same way about channel set. Thought I hated the gaps but when I saw it in real life, the sparkle just blurs the gap making it not noticeable at all.

I love the setting you''re thinking about. Here''s a thread about someone else that purchased the Excel replica, with pics. I don''t know where your pics are sparxs?

Chooch''s amazing ring

Awesome, great to know! I will contact them about more specifics, such as the content of the 950 platinum alloy they use, and hopefully match a .75-1ct center stone for this setting....

Thanks!
