I wish it were as easy to find a diamond setting as it is fabulous bands ! This brand new never worn 14 k white gold band, was calling my name, while browsing E-bay! $70! I couldn't turn my back on him!! I plan on wearing it with my halo ring, once (if ever) it's complete!! I know this selller has one more (new, never worn, white gold, size 8 , available)

Thanks MMT..the setting just takes away from the diamond as is..too wide (over 4mm). I want my diamond to really POP!! I am "interviewing" (lol) a gentleman in Toronto right now. He has sent me pics of a couple settings he can create and keep me at around $1400! I just might be dropping off my ring to him this weekend (while I am in Toronto). Trying to find someone to work with, before the weekend!! Keep ya posted!

LOL...If I added up the cost of what I paid for ALL (say 7) bands I bought on E-bay in the past year..I bet it would cost far less, than it would for just ONE (like my 5 stone diamond band) at retail cost, or to have had custom made! E-bay rocks for bands!!

i think i still like the bezel set band the most. it looked SO expensive!
 
I think 3mm is perfect, too - not too thick, but still quite substantial. Great find!

It WAS a super nice bezel band..at 18k gold with one carat of quality diamonds..I think I paid $499 for it! Quite a deal, for such a well made piece. I liked that it was about 3.25 wide. Some bezel bands are so narrow, and the diamonds are so small... you can hardly tell there ARE diamonds on the band ! I actually just found a very similar bezel band on a website (not E-bay) on for about $ 495 .and it looks VERY well made, great diamonds..I'm considering it..since I miss my bezel band!

holy crap that''s cheap!! wow!! if you ever see one again, tell me asap, lol!! :)
 
Here is a pic of it..I just looked it up again..still available..$495 , 11 diamonds totalling .55 carats

A jewelry store! Online. So if anyone is looking for a bezel band...

Link or store name for the bezel band, please!!!

I prefer this to the style of your old bezel band, actually. I like the stones to be closer together like this one, rather than spaced widely.

My wedding band is 2mm wide with just under 2pointers (0.19ct each), and I don''t think that anyone misses the fact that there are diamonds in there

the bezels themselves are so fine that you can barely see the metal, and it just looks like a string of diamonds across my finger.
