So, I'm considering different eternity bands. There's a small chance I'll stack it with other rings but I'd like to be able to wear it on its own as well. Please pardon the links - I wanted you to see multiple pictures. HOWEVER, the bracelet sized pictures are a bit misleading esp for option B.
I've got two I'm trying to choose between and I'm not positive either is perfect:
Option A
This is a half eternity in white gold. In some ways I'd prefer a full eternity but this is a great price (or at least I think it is!) and I sometimes have to use my hands so I might wear this rather than my engagement ring on days that I'll be more active at work. I like that it has a nice presence on my hand. I somewhat dislike white gold - this appears to be yellowing and I really don't have much desire to have it plated. I've got some pieces surely with different alloys that don't have this problem.

Option B
This is a gorgeous and unique band. I love that it is a full eternity and that it is platinum. The stones are actually ovals which gives it a different look - very elegant. The definite down side is that it is on the petite side. For those in the know - do you think I ring could actually be 1 ctw and be a size 5 with 23 stones? I think the stones would have to be bigger for that. Additionally, another minus is that one of the stones is badly chipped. I'm not sure I'd want to put more $ into it to have that fixed (or if it would even be able to be easily fixed).

Option C
Keep looking - I really like the deco style of these kinds of rings. Although I do love the shared prong look of solid diamonds too. The chase and finding a great deal is like a sport to me
