Hello Everybody! :) I am trying to create my dream engagement ring. I would like to have a platinum band with 8 channe-set princess-cut diamonds in it (4 on each side), around 3/4 carat total. I would like to have the center to be a princess-cut diamond over 1.00 carat. I hope I described it well enough for you to visualize. It's a fairly popular and beautiful style. My first question is if anybody knows where I can find that exact style/specs already pre-set instead of having to buy the setting and the diamond seperately???????????? My boyfriend is currently on a budget of no more than $5,000-$6,000.
I've been looking at princess-cut diamonds online at Adiamor.com, JamesAllen.com, and Shenoa.com Are they reputable online vendors? Also, is EGL trustworthy?
In the reply below, I have attached 6 different princess-cut diamonds from the above websites that I am trying to choose between. They all seem amazing to me but I know nothing about specs like girdle, depth, table,fluorescence, symmetry, culet, etc. What do they mean and what should they be?
If you could please answer the three above questions, it would be greatly appreciated! :)
Also, if you could please check out the 6 diamonds I've attached below and tell me what would be the best and WHY.... I would be very greatful. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I thank you all in advance for your responses! :)
 
These are the diamonds I am choosing between! Thank you! :)

It is so hard to judge fancy shapes by numbers, and Princess are no exception. See if you can get photos of these and an ASET image if possible.

I would recommend you look at some AGS0 cut grade Princess, Wink Jones sells Infinity diamonds which are superbly crafted and performing Princess. Also look among this lab and GIA.

James Allen is also a well regarded vendor, as is Whiteflash and Good old Gold, try to stick to vendors who have in house diamonds, that way they can advise you on each diamond without having to call it in.
 
HI! THANK YOU SO, SO MUCH FOR YOUR RESPONSE(S)!
AS USUAL, THEY ARE EXTREMELY HELPFUL :)

*THIS IS A BETTER PICTURE OF THE 7 (CORRECTION UPDATED) DIAMONDS THAT I AM CHOOSING BETWEEN! LOL*

AS FOR THE BAND, I AM NO LONGER LOOKING A PRINCESS CHANNEL-SET BAND AS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY.

I AM NOW LOOKING FOR A 1.5MM (OR LESS) PLATINUM PAVE'-DIAMOND BAND.

PLEASE HELP! IF YOU SEE THE PRINCESS DIAMOND AND THAT BAND TOGETHER, PLEASE LET ME KNOW TOO! THANK YOU SO MUCH! :)
