Final AVR comparison...2.12 and 2.29 I VS1

Ahhh, well you chose a beautiful stone! I am sure she will love it! I wondered what you would decide. I agree that the extra price premium is difficult to justify. I am still working on that part myself, actually. But my last diamond was a round brilliant with strong blue fluorescence, and I do really love fluoro in diamonds!

Congratulations and I hope you come back and post a thread on Show Me the Bling once you get the ring and propose!!! :appl:
 
Late but I prefer the facets of the 2.12 more. I'd get that and go for the french cuts if that's what you love.

Great to see you, Gypsy!!! :wavey: I did something kinda crazy and decided to try the 2.29 first, but I am pretty sure I'll end up with the 2.12. I can't justify the price difference even though the 2.29 was appealing to me because of Yoram being the cutter. Jon knows I am undecided and just trying out the 2.29 first. I honestly think it will be too big for me anyway. And yes, a french cut band would be fabulous!
 
DS...Congrats on selling your stone... :appl: Did Charmy get a 10% sales commission?... :Up_to_something:
 
Congrats DS! Wonderful news for you. This is all falling into place now. . . any word on your new ring's arrival? You must be beside yourself!

Hi, DF, MGR, Greg, and Charmy!!! :wavey:

Charmy, I don't know if you saw my note on my pre-loved thread, but thank you ever so much for recommending my stone to your co-worker! He was very nice and I felt like he got a good deal and I got a fair price, too! So your commission is a big THANK YOU and {{{{HUG}}}} from me!!!! :bigsmile: :appl:

I cannot wait for the reveal! :appl:
 
Thanks, Rosetta! I will try to get a few pics posted here on this thread before I leave for Las Vegas! I am not doing a Show Me the Bling thread until I decide which diamond I am really keeping!!!

I didn't check the thread but I think it is a win/win for both! He is a real sweetheart and I am very happy he got such an awesome diamond. I can't wait to see the finished product. For me, commmisson is making people happy!

You are so sweet DS but your gorgeous diamond sold itself. Like I said to the buyer, if it is good enough for DS .. it will be more than perfect for anyone.
 
Oh, Charmy, that was really sweet!!!! Thank you!!! That means a lot coming from someone with such an exquisite collection of diamond rings!
 
I keep checking this thread to see your ring DS. Hope you got it or it's on its way. The anticipation must be incredible. Can't wait to see it! Happy Memorial Day.
:appl:
 
:lickout: I keep coming back to this thread. Can't wait to ser the ring!!!
 
Thanks Sandeek and Acinom!! Tuesday is the big day! Check back then!

Oooooh you kind of snuck that in there, didn't you?!! Well I (of course :cheeky: ) voted for the 2.29 so I hope you keep it! I can't wait to see it in Vegas! NEXT WEEK!
 
Thanks armywife! :wavey:

Thing...I can't wait to see you and everyone next week!!!!! :appl: Yes, it was kind of crazy but Jonathan is apparently the most patient human on earth and let me do a trial run (after I had already seen both stones!). I think I'll like the 2.29 in my PS world, but in the real world it may be a little over the top. We'll see! I can't wait to see your new ring, too!!! :appl:
 
you better post before you go. Since some of us can't go to Vegas we have to live vicariously through those who are. I hope you win that OEC pendant from JA

have fun and can't wait to see the 2.29
 
Thanks, Heidi!!! There are some great prizes in the drawing this year, that's for sure! I'll be happy for anyone who wins, but just being able to be there is enough of a prize!
 
Okay, sneak peek for those who have stuck with me this long! I am only posting a couple of pics because if I decide to keep this stone, I'll eventually do a Show me the Bling thread. First impressions are that Vatche did an amazing job with the new head! The ring is beautiful, looks brand new, and it is just fine as a temporary or permanent home for this diamond! The diamond looks huge and gorgeous! My only qualms are whether it is too big and I am not fond of the price. Otherwise, it is perfect!

Wow! Amazing! :lickout:
 
Oh DS that looks just DIVINE! The 2.29 was my choice all along, so I'll be sad on your behalf if you decide not to keep her. I LOVE this! :love: :appl: :love: :appl: :love:
 
OMG!!!!!! DS, that ring is spectacular!!!!! :love: :love: :love:
It is not too big (IMO)...it's just perfect on you! Really and truly perfect! A gorgeous stone, a gorgeous ring for a beautiful person!!!
I hope you decide this is the one cause it's amazing! :appl: :appl: :appl:
 
Thanks, ladies!!! The timing is good because after I go to Vegas and see all the really big rocks, this baby is probably going to be small in comparison...so that may help my perspective! :lol:

It really is a gorgeous stone. Pictures just never do justice to diamonds.
 
WOW!

i like, i like, i like......

profile shot pls....i know they are only a few to tease.
Wear it well to VEGAS!!!!!!

More importantly, wear it with confidence!
 
Okay, profile shot for Greg...not the best but I have to meet someone for lunch so I am on a tight time schedule! I'll check back in in a couple of hours!

OH MY GOSH! It looks amazing! :appl: I really like how it looks with your legacy band. :love:

I definitely do not think it looks too big... in fact, I think it looks perfect!!! Of course I am a bit biased since I have leaned towards the 2.29 from day one. I have to say, I will be pretty sad if the 2.29 goes back. *sniff, sniff* ;(
