U must be a rich guy....proposal already 10k myr

Got my ring from one of the famous diamond wholesaler from Hong Kong.
0.5 carat F Si1 3ex Non Florescent for HKd 10,900.

The Si1 there is gorgeous, at least it looks like VS1 to me under the 10x magnifier unlike those poor qualities stone that i have spotted in Wah Chan where you can see feathers and clouds all over.

Though I forgot to check the crown and pavillion angles which are a bit out from Jannpaul's marketing gimmick ideal cut, the diamond appears to be very shinny and I hardly spot the difference in the brilliance between an ideal cut diamond with my diamond (I think probably you need a very good pair of eyes and my diamond is small therefore has not much impact). I was too concentrating to compare the fire under the fluorescence light between 4 stones that he picked for me. The best thing is if you buy a diamond from the wholesaler they would not mark-up the price for an ideal cut because the price is determined by the specs in the GIA cert. Therefore feel free to pick by looking at the proportions yourself!

The international price for 0.5 carat F Si1 3ex None is USD 3100 per carat however after the conversion to HKD, he sold to me at HKD 8700. My 4 prongs setting is HKD 2,200. The heart shaped prongs enhanced the size of the stone.

Finally my diamond hunting journey of 1 year has came to the end.

I only have one ring for everyday wear. I see no point of getting those wedding band that I don't love at all.

How much is this im RM?

This is marriage ring or propose ring?

Bt im sure tht if buy 2, i will the one suffe-ring when the bills come

Congratulations! Very stunning victorian design. Looks like you paid a lot of efforts in choosing the setting and you must love pave diamonds a lot. Your gf definitely appreciates a guy like you

These are my new rings. Just awesome. First time I purchased my rings online from https://www.eternitybyyoni.com/ and these are just awesome.

what is the price of these rings and can you tell me that from where you had purchased these. i am searching for the same.

Very pretty. I was thinking of wearing 2 rings in the same finger, now i'll

In order to create surprises, you can buy the ring first after that go to the retailer to resize. Another recommended method is to use a dummy ring to propose first after that you can bring her along to choose for her dream engagement ring.

About myself, my bf let me choose for my own ring from the very beginning given a budget of 5k to get a 0.4+carat diamond. However in the end we ended up over- budgeted for about RM 1.1k due to the recent currency depreciation ( I bought my ring from Hong Kong). I've got a 0.5 carat instead it looks bigger and the price difference is merely 1000 HKD. Prior to that I did a lot of homework from research on the diamond selection, my reliable jeweller and my preferred setting that makes me more appreciate and understand my own unique ring. Of course this would ruin all of the surprises ( I'm still wondering how he'll propose to me), in return I got to choose what I want to wear for the coming years, instead him getting me something that I don't like. Hehe I'm kinda fussy.

Hi,

Your ring is so beautiful. I liked it. I would check your mentioned site. It seems they have some really nice jewelry stuff. I have recently visited this website: http://www.spoilcupid.com/collections/rings and i found this good too. Have you heard about it? I like classic round halo ring one. And thinking to buy that one  luckily, when it comes to diamonds you have the Four C's to help you identify exceptional value. When looking for a diamond ring, you want to be aware of the diamond's cut, clarity, color, and carat weight and I have gathered whole detail on this (classic round halo) ring. And, I think I am going right if I buy it. Do you consider cut, Clarity, color and carat weight while choosing a diamond ring? I want to know your views on these.

Regards,
Gary

actually any idea on propose ring ??
i just like ..wow...all 0.50 carat already 10k ..

any idea can get around for 2k ??
because if 10k budget , i would spend the balance 8k for our dream house, furniture those will be kill me and i believe, she would agree i do that..

8k can't get much.

A good sofa cost at least 6k onward.

If she's willing to settle for a cheap ring, just get one only.

But in my honest opinion, it's one in a lifetime thing, so go crazy a bit is okay

Just cut back on things like wedding receptions and etc.

yesterday just bring my gf to visit TOMEI
0.31 carat , grade with F , VVS1 , cost for RM 7k , its this reasonable ??

Define reasonable?

Color F should be okay.

VVS1 also not too shabby.

If it's certified by GIA, should be no problem much.

I am not a diamond expert, so for me, what's acceptable maybe not acceptable for others.

Most importantly, your GF like the ring or not?

If yes, go ahead and don't think too much about it.

You maybe can get better deals out there but if she don't like it, no point as well :/

she been tried for 0.13 , once put on her hand...straight away say too small..
the sales person also smile but cant say anythings.


i am planning to buy a normal one
as , u propose need 1 ring, when register 1 pair , and married time need 1 more..
total need 3 times..
the cost will kill me
