As long as your other half likes it + you can afford the price, it's okay d.

Make sure the diamonds has certs, at the very least just for future resale value ( If you want to be safe ).

Looks big / Sounds big.

Have you checked out the diamond yourself?

If it comes with certification, it's pretty decent.

If you are looking for just the size then this seems like a good buy ..

H is stil a decent colour.. It really depends on the preference of your other half.
Clarity is not visible to naked eye but colour is.. personally i only like DEF colours the more whiter the diamond is.
Apart from that check the HCA if its 2 n below. coz not all 3EX diamonds is good.

Normally diamonds below 0.30 carat has no certification. No serial number. You just have to trust the jeweller for the colour, clarty etc..
with a cert its a peave of mind of what u are getting.

Go to Wah chan midvalley or one utama ..choose your own diamond and choose ur own setting.. can get 3-4k

Cert provides authenticity that the diamond is not fake, correct? But I'd say cert or no cert, diamonds don't have that much re-sale value, unlike gold. I stand corrected, though smile.gif

yeah cert to check authenticity. At least u know ur diamond isnt swapped when u send to the jewellers hahah
Of course gold have more value in terms of resale value but diamonds is more of a sentimental gift more than for smth to resell in future.
unless someone gf dont mind to be proposed wit a 24/22k gold ring/ bar instead of a diamond ring ..

Diamond with certs holds its value better than diamond without certs.

Of course resale value won't be great but does that even matter when you want to purchase a diamond ring? laugh.gif

That's why if it has a cert, people would hesitate to do anything funny coz you can trace it back.

Trace it back to what? Crooks can take the ori diamond, swap it with some cheapo plastic still, right?

Haven't seen the diamond cert. Maybe its got more details that one can check against the diamond, like weight etc...

Whenever you send it to service or whatever, counter check it with the information on the cert to ensure such nonsense does not happen.

Problem is, I don’t do diamonds without certs so it’s hard to tell what dishonest people would do with it laugh.gif

If you’re so afraid of such, get the diamond from big brands like Tiffany or Cartier. Confirm they got no time to swap out your diamond with a fake.

Go to Wah Chan Mid valley or 1U. You might get around 0.3carat in your price range. They are having clearance promotion now. I just bought mine in Mid valley outside Aeon Big there.

You can find a 0,3 carat in WahChan due to the recent promotion.

is ZCova a good place to purchase rings?
have seen i do jewellery but i'd prefer if they place the price sad.gif
looking for minimum 0.8-1 carat (below 1 carat most likely because when it touches 1 carat the price differs in big amount)

Depends on your budget, seriously.
