i just wanted to thank everyone for helping me figure out the difference between kretchmers omega bands
and helping to find the right diamond for it!
it will be a few weeks before i can see the finished product but once i get it pictures will be posted for everyone who asked for them
thanks again to all who responded!
 
congrats...can''t wait to see the finished ring!!
 
Congratulations Mike!

I can''t wait to see it ... Kretchmer settings are lovely! I''ve actually been eyeing one up on the Pearlman''s Jewelers website under the closeout section ... Since I can''t have it, I''ve been hoping that someone from PS will snatch it up and take great pics.

Looking forward to seeing your pictures!
 
Yea Congrats! You will love it. I''ve been wearing one for almost 8 years and I love it.
 
joanga - how do you like it? ever had any problems with it? ours is still in the process of being sculpted but i am having trouble sleeping, i hope i made the right decision on a rock. any hand pictures of yours by any chance, that is one thing i have never been able to find on the internet
 
Love it.. I have the omega, not sure exactly which one. The ring is heavy, which I like.

The only thing I learned was, NEVER let anyone except the Kretchmer CO. work on it. No polish.. I had a jeweler polish it and that caused a problem. So if a jeweler offers to clean it, beware they might think they can polish it. Tell them no!

I had one side done in the matte finish, that lasts about 2 months, it wears smooth again. I also included scattered diamonds on one side. I do not wear my ring in the garden or to clean house. So it''s treated well.

I have an 1.25, I, VS2 stone, I''m sure you were told they won''t set any stone. Are you working with Pearlman''s? They are very knowledgeable and helpful.

Also this is the only ring I wear, I was told I couldn''t wear another band with it, as it might wear away some of the gold.

Good for you.. post pictures.
 
good glad to hear you still love it, im glad i came onto this site cause one thing i learned is only let kretchmer work on it, i ended up getting it locally. my jeweler was nice enough to allow me to look online with them and they worked with the price when i compared it to other vendors.
i ended up with a 1ct g vs2. i was originally looking at an "i" but wasnt sure since you can see the stone from the side, can you ever notice any color in yours since the setting is so wide open?
 
oh and good point about not wearing another band next to it, someone mentioned that to me awhile ago when i first showed interest in this setting but had completely forgotten about it. do you wear a wedding band on your other hand or anything like that? i havent even started thinking about that yet!
 
I don''t notice any color from the side. I''m happy with the I color. I do lean towards warmer colors though, they suit my skin tone. That''s why I only wear yellow gold.

At first I wore the diamond in a temp setting, after having it re-set in the Kretchmer, I waited till we got married to wear it again. It''s my only wedding ring.

I wear a few other right hand rings.. I have a nice shared prong eternity pinky.
