Finallly! The wait seemed like an enternity! It took JA an extra few days for the size 3 setting and then there was a delay by FedEx in Memphis, but FINALLY, today, I picked up my new ring! It''s really a beautiful stone! OH MY GOSH, it is full of life and much more beautiful in real life than any picture could capture. The SI2 is a cloud but I can''t see a darn thing! Bob at WF told me it would be undectable and he was right! It looks like an IF stone to me! I''ve got a 20X loupe and I can''t see nuthin! LOVE IT! My only disappointment is that I thought it would appear much bigger than my 0.50 halo

and it doesn''t - it actually looks a little smaller. With that said, the whole point in the upgrade was for a *larger* appearing stone. I''m kinda on the fence about sending the stone back, even though I can''t afford anything an larger at the moment - uh, I''m so torn!

I''m gonna give it a few days to settle in and decide what I''m gonna do. But in the meantime, take a look at this baby! She is gorgeous!

(This is a cool pic, but please excuse that she''s a little dirty in this pic)

Beautiful diamond. It looks great! I prefer the clean look of a solitaire, but I can see where the halo adds a lot of size.

Let us know what you decide, but I would vote for keeping it.

Is it just me or does the 0.52 look the same size at the 0.93? Why do they look so close in size? I guess I need a 2ct

It looks HUGE on your teensy finger! Just gorgeous.
It easily looks more like 1.25-1.50 on your wee digit.
Lucky gal!

Metro, both of your rings are gorgeous! I love your halo, and your new .93 does look big on your little finger! I love them. Congratulations!

No, I think the .93 diamond does look bigger than the .52 diamond itself. It''s just that pesky halo making the .52 look so huge! What a gorgeous diamond, though! WOW! Plus...you can always upgrade the .93 later!

. Is it a H&A btw?

The 0.93ct diamond IS bigger than the centre diamond in the other ring. And I agree, you can always upgrade later.

Size 3 finger? Lucky girl.

The halo makes the other one appear bigger but I to personally prefer the simplicity of a solitaire :)

The new upgrade rocks :) YUMMY YUMMY stone :)

there''s nothing like a halo for finger coverage, but personally, i prefer a simple solitaire setting that really draws attention to a beautiful stone! i''m so jealous of your tiny ring size. if only a .93ct looked like that on my hand, my husband would be ecstatic!
