MZ, VRBeauty, Maisie, Dee*Jay, Circe, iLander, thank you!!!

Where is Laurie? Laurie needs to see this.

CAVEAT, if I can't get the real camera, there will be no pictures of my hand- I took pictures of my hand with my iPhone and it looked like a corpspe that had been submerged in water! iPhone. just. will. not. cut. it.

I'm glad you all enjoyed my pictures. SO took the first set. I took these.

Very beautiful!

Isn't it nice to know that it really doesn't get any better, in the jewelry world, than this? Cartier is respected by kings and queens, for generations.

Lovely.

I recognize the flip-flop from your aunt, another treasure.

ILander, thanks for noticing that. Yes, that's the pendant that was found in my late aunt's possessions that I knew nothing about- it's one of my favorite things.

I chose this ring because Cartier was the only company that made what I wanted but I'm glad it could be such a well respected company and they didn't disappoint me in any way.

Gorgeous ring, Danny! I agree with Jennifer and Circe, the thing I also love most is how excited you are about it. Your happiness comes through loud and clear and that's fun to see. Almost giddy, I'd say. :bigsmile:

Yippee!!! Sorry I'm late to this - but Danny, its BEAUTIFUL!!! So lovely and classic- a timeless choice for a wonderful person! I love the series - box, box and charm.... then the angel was soooo sweet! That is my favourite (well, I do like that little red box....!)

I hope you can get the REAL camera so we can get handshots - you know its mandatory on PS and we'd hate to have to kick you out! ;)) (:lol: :lol: :lol: ) BUt I hear what you are saying with the iphone - I think I look even worse than normal, too! Fingers crossed we'll have more photos from you :bigsmile:

I got mine new and I recommend it. It's amazing how perfect the finish is, how beautiful the alloy is, even the weighted box (like a chess piece) with its solid locking mechanism is luxurious- I don't regret choosing it at all. The ring is substantial, exquisitely designed, surprisingly heavy (18kt gold is very heavy as you know). I'd get it used, or just get it new if you can. Cartier's gold bands are a bargain. You think I'm joking. My ring was less than it would have been at Tiffany's, I've been monitoring prices for a long time, and Cartier's gold bands have been consistently priced lower than Tiffany's as prices have increased. I don't want to talk about the price of my ring but you can see it at the site. I'm betting the price of this ring is going rise by a good 50% in the next few years. If you do it, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Thank you, mogster! That's very kind! Please let me get the real camera and see what I can get and make a decision after that. The iPhone shots were incredibly hideous. And I'm not being vain. That just didn't look like my hand. It was just a creepy blob of light. :cheeky:

It's beautiful, as is your excitement over getting this piece!

Please post in the gargantuan Gold Thread in the Jewelry pieces forum. As yellow gold lovers, we would love to see more photos there.

Congrats! :appl:

Thank you, Junebug! I hope you're enjoying your beautiful ring! I love looking at it in your new avatar!

SO and I are very happy this worked out because I've never worn jewelry, I didn't know how it would fit, and I'm notorious for rejecting things (much less as I get older, lol!).

I might be the only the member of PS who's ever wanted to do a reveal thread at Hangout instead of SMTB but I will make up for that. SO forgot his camera but that's my fault. I was supposed to send him a text to remind him. He has so many things to think about but he wants to help me with this. I hope we'll be able to get more pictures next week. I'd would want to see more pictures too if it were me if I'm being honest. Speaking of which, I'd like to see more pictures of your ring someday. :wavey:

Danny, you are so nice, thank you and I would like to post some better pics of my ring at some point, at the risk of boring everyone to death! :cheeky:

I was really glad to hear the size of your ring worked out perfectly - I know you had been concerned about that - so much easier when things like that fall into place!

You must be having the best time wearing your new ring! Somehow it just kind of brightens up the days, doesn't it? :appl:

Yes! It's nice because this is only the 4th piece of gold I've had, two of the past 3 were used, and the 4th had a brushed surface. So it's nice and the fact it fits and everything is amazing. :))

Thanks, Sharon! :wavey:

Do you have a Cartier ring? Which one(s) do you have?

I have a question about mine. There's a mark on the inside of the ring I can't see (it's too small for me to make out even the sun).

It might an assay mark. That's what I'm wondering. I'm also wondering (and my point is) whether my ring was made in New York or Paris? Not that it matters. I'm just curious.

The mark is the last of everything starting with "Cartier 750 C (in a circle) individual piece's serial number..."

could the C in a circle mean a trademark symbol?

Yes Danny--I hve two rolling rings: one my DH bought me in Paris three weeks ago, it is white gold and black ceramic. It is very chic and I adore it! The other is all yellow gold with sapphires, rubies, and diamonds in each rolling band. It is a an Estate piece I purchased from Signed Pieces--a model no longer in production me thinks.

cheers--Sharon

canuk-gal....not to threadjack, since danny waited soooo long for his ring, but could you start a thread with that white gold/ceramic trinity? I'm in love with that ring!
