Which would you choose...Mark Morrell Flame with Plain Head or Vatche Royal Crown?

Both are lovely, but I think I prefer the MM slightly more. MM''s finish and technique is incredible, and I love the taper and cathedral of the setting.

vatche royal crown! love the sweeping lines and how it''s open so you can see the stone. i haven''t seen another setting like it. the tapering will also make your stone pop more.

Just by looking at all the pictures here on the forum, I''ll pick MM Flame

MM''s work is way superb than Vatche Royal Crown


I was going to get a MM flame setting as well, but I live in Mass and have to pay tax, plus he doesn''t allow local pickup. These are the reasons I pass on MM

you passed on the setting you wanted becasue of a 5% sales tax?!! Just to be clear, thats $75 ona $150 setting?! WTF

Its not just the $100, I wanted to pay him cash and pick it up locally but he didn''t accept that, so thats why I pass.

If everything was to work out with MM, I would of gotten him a $100 gift anyways, so it wasn''t about money.

Its my decision and I dont need you to WTF my comments...thanks

Well said smithy617

oh relax... I''m simply pointing out, that based on the information you provided, that your decision was based upon flawed logic... Sounds like there were other reasos you didnt go with MM... But if the only reason you passed was to save on sales tax, thats a dumb one--especially since you are responsible for reporting the purchase and paying sales tax on it anyhow...

thanks everyone for your opinion.
I personally like MM but I decided that I will get Vatch RC since I think my gf will like it more than MM.

Thanks again.
