When I wore my first e-ring, I can wear it all day and only took it off at night ~ now I try not to be too clumsy banging on something hard since it has only four prongs !!

Hello, I am just curious, have any of you insured your ring? My friends suggested that I should put insurance on my ring, this thought never had occured to me until she brought up
23.gif
I imagine rings need insurance by definition cost a fortune
22.gif

...I don't think my ring is any where near that. Please share with me some of your experience/suggestions ?

Your set is simply stunning! My SO and I are currently on the hunt for a Tiffany Novo as my engagement ring. I love seeing pictures of others who have the Novo! Thank you for sharing!

If you are in a financial situation where you could easily afford to replace it if it's lost or stolen, then you probably don't need to insure it. I have mine insured!!

Novopiggy -- I have been DROOLING over all of the pics of the Novos on this board! Seeing all the different Novos really affirms my love for this setting. My SO and I have already had 3 different Novos brought into our local Tiffany''s but we are really holding out for one that fits in our specs and price range. I hope it happens soon!

Burk, I heard that you can insure you ring along with your house, would you recommend it, or should I do it separately?

We have my jewelery on our home owners policy. I''d call your agent and research rates in your area. I know a lot of people on this board use Chubb to insure their jewelry.

I keep coming back to you look at your ring -- it''s so beautiful and classic!

I really like the band you''re wearing it with. Is it a little thicker than the e-ring? May I ask if you found that band at Tiffany''s? I didn''t see it there...

Congratulations!

LabRatPhD -
I know!!! Aren''t those Novos rings posted in these forum gorgeous?
emlove.gif
I went back so many times !!!! They are simply dazzling~!!

I think unless you live in NYC, most local Tiffany stores just don''t have enough inventories
33.gif
When my hubby decided to upgrade the ring for our anniversary, I also requested Tiffany to transfer rings from another store. Not sure why but when we asked the SA, there were only selectively few rings avaliable in their inventory in the range we were looking for (G-I/ VVS-VS, 1.2-1.5c) The first two rings we wanted to see were put on hold for like a week and I never gotten a chance to see them!!
38.gif
The 3rd ring (H/VS1) came in but it was has a little faint yellow color when we compared side by side with a color G ring, so we decided not to take it. I waited for another week, and there were two Novos suddenly came up in their inventory. However, the ring we selected was again put on hold for 1.5+ week
14.gif
It was such a loooonnnng waiting period (...I almost gone insane
31.gif
)~~ In the end we finally got a call from Tiffany that the ring was released !! The SA told us that there were four customers after me wanted to see the same ring. Not sure whether Novo is a popular style or just a way to get us to purchase right away
33.gif
Anyway, I am extremely happy either way!!!

Burk - thank you for the information !! I will check my agent to search for the rate!
Cushball - the band is also from Tiffany, it's the Novo wedding band !!

Novo band is actually pretty thin, a little thinner than my old Tiffany setting.

Hi Novopiggy!

We are looking for G-I, around 2cts, and no specific clarity. The largest we saw was a G, VVS1, 1.79 cts. It was absolutely stunning but SO and I wanted to see a 2ct Novo, since that was the size we were originally going for. There seem to be a handful in the 1.7-1.8 range and a few 2cts floating around in the system within our specs. The two available 2 cts Novos are in an I color, VVS clarity. There is also an H color 2.15 ct, but it is bigger than what I am looking for (and more importantly, out of the budget I am comfortable with). So basically nothing in the middle right now. We are 3rd on the waitlist for both 2 ct Novos! Our Tiffany SA said that the Novos in larger sizes are less common to begin with and with Valentine''s Day around the corner, we will probably have to hold out for a new shipment.

Good things come to those who wait, I suppose!

In the meantime, I will ogle your fab pics! I really want the Novo wedding band to match my e-ring!

Hello LabRatPhD,

I would totally recommend you wait until your ideal ring come up if you're patient! Originally I was in no hurry at all, we were even talking about getting the upgrade on our 10 year anniversary instead of 5, but when I tried on the Novo e-ring at Tiffany's I knew I was doomed (....in a good way of course
9.gif
). I called the SA every other three days to check if there's any new shipment
25.gif
.

Hope you get your to see your 2ct ring soon!! If you do, please come back and post a zillion hand shots !!!

Hi Novopiggy!

I have had to restrain myself from calling our SA this week! He knows I am absolutely dying to try on some 2 cts, so it is in his best interest to call as soon as some new rings show up

Don''t worry...I will make the biggest announcement once I get my ring!
