honestly i couldn't tell the difference for god's sake!

Same, I can only tell if the E and F are placed side by side under daylight condition.

If I'm shown just one diamond, I wouldn't be able to tell if it's D,E,F or G... Will just see it as colorless

there was a 0.59 F VS1 at 4.9k.. i think pushing color down might be able to get 0.6c and plus setting perhaps squeezing in at 5k.

I prefer a D.. even though yes there is possibility of bigger carat but weaker colour. Oh well. i just cant live with the idea i didnt get a D. and putting D and E beside i could tell the diff

Haha, actually I kind of agree with them. My gut feel is that the lady will care more about the size and the shine. Of course, the diamond must be colourless w no visible inclusions.

actually you can still change your mind as long as the diamond is not set on the ring. can ask JP to let you compare the sizes. but personally i feel the jump below 0.05 is not that significant to the eye unless you put side by side to compare. if a 0.56 jump to 0.65 then it will be more obvious. :o

Hey Bros,

Gotten a proposal ring from JannPaul

I was recommended by my colleague to look for Amy..
I entered the shop like a diamond idiot haha... The introduction given by her was very good.. Never knew getting a diamond had so much things to look out for.

Initially I had a lot of hesitations as I've never bought any diamonds in my life before.. My cousin (who went down with me) who recently bought his wedding ring also look lost when she started explaining all the different kind of cuts and qualities that a diamond can have. She also advises me on what kind of rings ladies normally look for.

After a 2 hours session with her, I've finally made my choice on a 0.35 carat E VS1 Diamond with setting at round 2.5k-ish which was within my budget all thanks to Amy's recommendation. Overall felt my time was well spent and would certainly recommend Amy as your sales co-ordinator.

online diamond prices are significantly cheaper.. but there's also a higher risk involved with not being able to view the diamond in person.. and now i'm tempted to do online (buy diamond and use the deposit with JP for the setting..)

Hi everyone!

I just bought an engagement ring recently at JannPaul and was served by Casey. He was really patient during the Diamond Education Session and took the time to teach me all about diamonds and settings, answering all my questions. I really appreciated it. It truly was a pleasant experience.

I just received my scope images (can't attach so links are below), any input from anyone would be much appreciated! Thank you!

Dear Gurus,

Looking through all your discussion it seems like the rock price is never gonna stay stagnant for too long. If I am planning on getting one with 8k budget, may I know if I could still fetch a 0.8 c with this price?

Depends on the quality of the rock. Got a 0.68c e colour for 7.2k. So you might have to sacrifice on colour or cut

I see... Since that case, I believe saving up a little bit more to about 10k before I arrange a slot with JP then. :D

For me, I would prefer seeing the diamond physically instead of relying on cert and specifications. I very risk adverse.. :s13:
