Hello everyone!
I am leaning more and more towards buying a completed ring on Whiteflash or Bluenile and I've narrowed my choices down to a few diamonds and settings. I was wondering if I could get some input on them.
TIMEFRAME:
- Need to have a completed ring by next Friday, ideally with an engraved message.
BUDGET:
- Around $8500 with everything.
STONES:
- Criteria: looking for as a good as a round brilliant cut as possible around 1 carat, would like it to be as a visibly clear/colorless as possible to the naked eye without caring too much about what it looks like under a loupe.

SETTING:
- Criteria: originally I was looking for a diamond setting but I got the sense that my fiance-to-be wants more of a cleaner, traditional look. So I am leaning towards a solitaire setting. Since she was so insistent on a round cut I thought I would go with a six prong setting to accentuate the round rock (to make it look round). Would like to stick with platinum as well.

QUESTIONS:
- Does Whiteflash do engraving with messages?
- Any comments or suggestions or other stones / settings that I should be looking at?
Thank you!!
