So I ordered the TR-005 Gelin Abaci tension setting with a .60, SI1, H, Ideal cut round from dimend SCAASI about three weeks ago and it was shipped last Thursday from Chicago to Sweetgrass, MT where we drove to pick it up from Calgary, AB, Canada to avoid brokerage fees, etc. which I was warned could have been through the roof. The ring turned out gorgeous - we couldn't be happier with it! I have to say it was pretty nerve racking making such a large purchase having never seen this setting in person before or even having seen a real-world photo (i.e. non-promo picture) but those fears have been squashed and then some! A word to the wise, go for a slightly smaller ring size than she'd typically wear. My fiance (she said yes Saturday night!) normally wears a size 7, I ordered a 6.75 at Lexi from dimend SCAASI's advice and it fits pretty well but is a tad loose. The temporary plan is to make sure her wedding band is good and snug to guarantee it's not going anywhere and we'll decide in the next couple of months whether we want to get it resized, which is doable for a tension setting, but only slightly. Lexi was very helpful and knowledgable and got the ring done for us 1-2 weeks faster than the usual 4-5 week timeframe. See my "dimend SCAASI Customer Service" thread in the "Rocky Talky" section for more on my dimend SCAASI experience.
