Opinion Requested - Blue Nile Eternity Band (2.75 ctw)

[Vizsla Girl]

I tried to do a search but wasn't coming up with anything regarding what to look for when purchasing an eternity band, and how you know whether or not you're getting something that is good quality. I would appreciate pointers on this piece which I have purchased, but won't receive for a few weeks. Once I get it I would still be in the 30 day return window, but wondering what folks' thoughts are on this? I usually order eternity bands a little large so I can stack, so this would be a 9 and 2.75 carats.

Thank you in advance for your feedback

... ok BN took the ring down that I purchased. It is this ring, but 2.5 carats: http://www.bluenile.com/riviera-pave-diamond-eternity-ring-18k-white-gold_50645?elem=img&track=product

I'm just not really sure what to look for. Maybe we can go that route? What do you look for in a fantastic eternity band?

Well, maybe you've already done a search and read these PS threads on the BN Riviera band ... I think these threads discussed Riviera bands with lower total carat weight than the one you're considering, but the consensus seems to be that the Riviera is well-made with nice-quality diamonds, and low-profile so comfortable to wear ...

With BN's great return policy, maybe buy it and check it out in person? I was considering one myself during one of BN's recent sales but was too slow in making up my mind, but would love to hear your feedback if you do end up buying it.

Oh! Awesome! Thank you. I must not have been searching for the right thing. I actually have a 1.5 carat band that is the same as what I purchased, this would be the 'upgrade'. I love it and it sits super low and is very comfortable... but just didn't know if it was considered a nice band overall. If the diamonds were considered close enough together, etc. But my 1.5 carat sparkles like crazy and I love it - I just caught the sale on this one so got it for around $4k when the list was $8300. I figured I would just check it out due to the awesome return period... but it's not ready until 12/22 and I'm dying waiting!! lol Again, thank you for your help finding those other links
