Hi there!
I'm getting close to making all of the big decisions, and wanted some help picking the metal for the setting. I started off looking only at WG and after reading a bunch of posts am thinking about platinum.
The setting i'll be working with is http://www.ritani.com/engagement-rings/french-set-halo-diamond-band-engagement-ring-in-platinum/4973. I initially chose Ritani because of the quality and that they dont use Nickel WG (don't want to risk spending all this money and my gf having any allergy issues).
Basically i'm a bit torn now, there is so much love for platinum here that i'm really not sure if gold is the right way to go. Does anyone have experience with Ritani WG setting and how well they hold up over time? Should durability be a concern with WG? Same for platinum, years down the line, are there any issues. If anyone can direct me to any pictures of what the Ritani rings look like after a bit of wear, that would be amazing.
Thanks!
