Ring in hand

[boomstick]

After 6-1/2 years, and four months of knowing he had the ring, my bf proposed! I want to thank the members of this forum for their knowledge which helped me find my beautiful diamond and setting. As is (almost) required , I've attached a couple of shots of the ring and the stone details...now, if I can only figure out how to attach my previous post of the ring adventures...

Your story is very similar to mine (I was with my BF for a little over 7yrs before he proposed to me). I also have a x-prong setting and he bought it from WF too!

I couldn''t help but notice the similarities last night as I was reading of one proposal after 6 1/2 years and another after 7 years. I also noticed the two Vatché style settings!!! I thought I was having déja vu!

That is a beautiful classic ring! Congrats!!

BTW, why did he wait so long after he picked up the ring to pop the question? I'm currently in the same situation, just curious......
