Proposal Ring - Part 3

[cyk343]

Doubt so , I was quoted 9400 for my 0.781 F VVS2, i will say his is probably above 11k unless i was highballed? :O

Yeah, forgotten it's Solesfera, not SIC

 

[rosifiedZ]

its around 12k for the stone

Ah , ty for the reply . i was also quoted 12k+ for 0.9x G VS2 , wonder why u didn’t for it since the price isn’t that far apart , assuming you bought yours recently only.

 

[rosifiedZ]

hmm maybe the 12k+ price is also for a SIC too cos i only ask her how much is 0.9x range . hahaha

yup saw the piece, didnt went for 0.9x vs2 as the current spec is vvs2, and noticeably there is not much difference visibly between a 0.9x and the 0.85. was looking for the more perfect piece, rather than size.

this is the 3d render

that i understand . couldn’t bring myself to bring a G or VS2 even though buy le also not i wear and the only piece left for 0.8x is a 0.802 G VS2. hopefully a suitable one will appear before my proposal next year . maybe starve a few more months to get that sweet 1c with the correct specs but the price jump is x.x

wanted to get >1ct, but for jannpaul asked the SA and the lady mentioned for the solafera stones hardly have >1ct in all cases the price does spike crazily at the .8.9 range

wa are yall being too particular about the scopes??

just cos the arrows are VERY slightly asymmetrical then the stone kena boot?? is it really that significant??

making me concerned about the rock i reserved

 

[summersky1986]

:/ they dont have much solasfera stock. is either i get a 0.344 carat E colour VS2 for 2.4k or 0.34 carat F colour VVS2 at 2.45k or a 0.6x carat :/ which way off my budget lol..

i am hoping tat a new shipment of solasfera do come out. wanted to get a 0.4x at least :/

It's your decision but I think if your budget is limited to <3k for diamond, instead of going for a solasfera, why not considered person's normal viewing distance is 12inches.. 0.344 might look like a messy ball of light leh..

I'm not sure what 3k would get u but I suspect at least a 0.5 SIC

Go see the non JP scopes.. most u dont even see the arrows or hearts.. or the ASET looks like chaotic color mess..


Then you'd be grateful and would stop thinking so much

Haha you definitely dont have to doubt yourself, as long as your scope is decent. I feel that any decent brilliant cut is good enough as long as its a triple ex.

The people here are being VERY particular only because they are paying for a SIC, which of course is understandable, as those who willing to pay for a SIC are perfectionist.

In normal fact, any decent brilliant cut would suffice, no one really cares if it's a SIC or not, as long as it shines averagely brightly. I feel it's over-rated.

Nah, I dont think 3k can get you a 0.5 SIC. Maybe just a high 0.4X.

Just go for size, trust me, it's worth much more.

I went to JP with the intention of getting an ideal from HoH.. after seeing the diamond contrast under diff lighting.. thought heck, just gonna spend the premium

Till date, banquet booked, bridal package booked.. and cost of ring almost equal deposit for banquet and full payment for package If I knew I'd be spending that amount on ring, I would have asked if she wants a rolex instead

I was hoping for a 0.50.. maybe 3k plus couple hundreds..

I think so too.. unless going for a bigger solasfero.. if not just get a bigger SIC (was that what u meant?)

My scopes images. Any comments?

Yeah. The contrast I feel is not that visible as sometimes its just too glaring to see them, main thing is the crown and pavillion angles are ideal.

To me, you can get the best cut right now, but when you upgrade a larger piece, you probably cant afford the same cut. Then wouldnt it defeat the purpose?

I just got mine from Poh Kim

Nice. Haha its perfect. If you want comments, you need to leave down the specs and price
