Here are my CBIs

I did trade in my 2.21 F-SI1 Cut to Order for a 2.18 E-VS1 to get a mind clean 3-stone ring.

I love your spread sheet.

The table, crown, pav # on my CBI are the same as your 2.18ct!

Oops, just found a typo. Depth of Q-VVS2 should be 5.22 not 8.22. Sorry.

This is my CBI J VS1, adorned by F/G melee. I can see the reflection of my phone and case in this picture, but the J has very little discernible body color. It's brilliant and very white. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Congratulations on your diamond decision, thats the hardest part IMHO. And the waiting is hard too, but its a different kind of hard, IYKWIM.

We will all be waiting for pictures! I hope everything works out and you and your fiancé are thrilled! How exciting!

I really appreciate the wishes. She does not know anything about this. When taking her to the store I had her try on just your everyday 2.0 carats that had pretty bad proportions and didn’t really sparkle. She found those beautiful and amazing. I hope that a 3 carat CBI will really blow her away because in the end this is for her not really me.

Yup that 2.18 is envy for many of us. Lucky for me (bad for you all), last time I mentioned it I think @cflutist and I have an understanding she is giving it to me when she bores of it. :pray:

On a serious note @T1NS, as you are aware CBI cuts the stones and HPD is the vendor that sells them. It's a great combo as HPD is the one that offers the perks we all love around here like the 80% buyback policy and really just @Wink's attention to details and how he genuinely cares about people, rather they are his customer or not.

He can do a much better job explaining it, but in short CBI internally grades the color of their stones before they go to lab, and they are extremely critical on themselves. Below is a screen cap from the HPD site, and in particular has data about J colored stones.

My 2.12 K cbi

I have just placed my order with HPD and your nice prongs (of course diamond as well) caught my eye. I have been going back and forth about the prongs and decided to go with their HP platinum and delicate claw prongs. Would you mind sharing what kind are yours (besides claw) and if you used their HP platinum as well? If so, how do you like it?
Btw, mine is same size as yours (2.13)

Here is my friend's 1.23ct on HPD claw prongs.

You and your Sweetie are going to LOVE your new CBI!

I went the CBI custom cut route too, so I know how exciting and nerve-wracking the wait can be.

Here's a couple of videos of my e-ring:

Your second video was mesmerizing. I thought at any moment your finger was going to ignite with all that fire! :love:

I was hoping for smaller prongs with their HP platinum. Something like this: Screen Shot 2020-03-09 at 8.36.27 PM.png
I'm sure Wink can have it done to your desire.
