For the same reason, you would not have vinyl seats in your car.
Yeah, but if I ever upgrade the $1782 will go down the drain...cflutist|1415257766|3778419 said:When you have an Octavia, it deserves an expensive setting

That is normal...cflutist|1415338052|3778981 said:You have DSS already?
Wow, you don't even have the ring yet and you are talking an upgrade in the future?

I thought about it but then I would have to ship the stone off myself, oh well.Asscherhalo_lover|1415543873|3780094 said:Dancing Fire|1415333135|3778961 said:Yeah, but if I ever upgrade the $1782 will go down the drain...cflutist|1415257766|3778419 said:When you have an Octavia, it deserves an expensive setting

Then why don't you go with Bruce Boone? Kenny has his rings by him and so does my husband. It'll save you over 1k.
The jeweler said 3 weeks but haven't heard from them yet. No upgrade for now, no $$$...MissGotRocks|1417113254|3791322 said:So DF - where's the ring? We've been waiting and waiting to see this baby in a setting!
However, I see your thread on upgrades and such - have you been bitten by the upgrade bug already?
Inquiring minds want to know these things - ha!
hope by next week.Rosebloom|1417141611|3791521 said:I somehow missed this thread DF but WOW OH WOW!!!! It's absolutely spectacular. I would just love to see a stone like that some day much less to own one! I hope you get it back in its setting asap.

Sorry bout the delay.
But I'm glad you'll be getting a better fit, which is super important with tension settings.
How did you feel about the distance from your skin to the culet?
So glad you bumped this!!! I am dying to see his ring myself!Sundial|1419951624|3809563 said:Dancing Fire has your Octavia been reset yet? Your new diamond is incredible and I can't wait to see it set and on your hand. Congratulations my old friend!!!
Thanks, I will bring it back to the jeweler next week and they'll ship it to GA for a reset.Sundial|1419951624|3809563 said:Dancing Fire has your Octavia been reset yet? Your new diamond is incredible and I can't wait to see it set and on your hand. Congratulations my old friend!!!
