So I''ve spent countless hours educating myself about diamonds - wwaaayyy beyond the "4 c''s". What this has done is made me want to purchase a much more expensive (and superior) diamond than I had anticipated. Now, I know when I give this superior ring to my soon-to-be fiance, she will really only know (and care) about:
1) the size
2) the sparkle (I know ... made up of all those factors)
That being said, is it REALLY worth it to go through all this hair pulling, nerve-racking analysis into details she will never care/know about? We are not conisseurs or experts in diamonds and probably won''t ever be. Will she really be able to tell if the depth and table %s are a little off? Is it worth those extra hundreds/thousands of dollars? I think so (piece of mind down the road) but will anyone else?
