QUOTE(NASUS31 @ Aug 27 2015, 03:27 PM) does it include wedding bands as well? or just diamond rings All, not only diamond. Gold as well. Basically the whole shop, promo end in end sep if not mistaken but each outlet will have different items on display. FYI, all price shown is already at discounted price.

QUOTE(ritctze @ Aug 28 2015, 02:14 AM) Hi Swabe13, I've been looking on JannPaul diamonds as well. Do you mind sharing how much do they quote you on the above 2 diamonds? What kind of information do we need to provide them when we first email them for inquiries? (eg. desired diamond specs, budget etc.) Thanks. ritctze am interested to know about this as well, already got a quote for Hearts on Fire from Habib.

QUOTE(swabe13 @ Aug 29 2015, 11:26 AM) Both were around the same price. They quoted me SGD 3k. That is for their Super Ideal cut. They showed me Ideal cuts and the normal triple EXC ones too which was 15-30% cheaper.. but I could see the difference in quality  SGD 3k is for the diamond itself, excluding the setting right? Their Super Ideal cut is very attractive

[quote=swabe13,Sep 1 2015, 07:52 PM] Ya, its for the diamond only. They have a video explaining how diamonds looks in different lights.. especially in jewelry shops with strong lights. Makes alot of sense...
how much is the cost of their ring setting for white 18K gold 4 prongs I wonder? May I ask do you know about Hearts on Fire in Habib Jewels, are they super ideal cut? they quoted RM10K plus for one ring 0.4c , I did not take note of the cert for more details urgh!! after watching the videos from JannPaul, I've learn more info, thinking of contacting JannPaul for a quote.

QUOTE(swabe13 @ Sep 4 2015, 01:42 PM) My plain ring in 18kt white gold cost SGD 550. They also got give some free ring servicing like 2 resizing, 2 replating and 1 engraving. This is my ring. It's only a 0.4ct but it looks quite big  Hearts on Fire is not super ideal cut. They are like branded diamonds but the quality is still not as good as super ideal. They don't use the Ideal and ASET scope to measure the light performance. They only use the hearts and arrows scope. When I was in Habib, one of the Hearts on Fire diamond had a HCA score of 3 IMO, its not worth the money to buy a branded diamond. Just go for a good quality and value for money one. In the end, girls can only tell the size and how shiny the diamond is... they cannot see the brand. oh no!! Now I wish I can see a comparison of Hearts of Fire and Super Ideal cut diamond side by side!!! hhmm!! I was kinda set to buy the one in Habib! I don't live in Spore, a little hard to convince my fiancé to make a trip there to buy it for me do show us a picture of the ring on your gf hand!! can't really see the sapphire that you mentioned you inserted!

Visit JannPaul yesterday and attended by Jerome, it was a very informative session with him and he was being so patient in attending all questions and showing me different diamonds under various light conditions. Totally worth my visit!

QUOTE(isaactham @ Oct 5 2015, 12:32 PM) I visited them to see the diamonds and they will be shipping my final ring to me. Prior to visiting them, they already narrowed some diamonds in my requirements to choose from then send me more info. Actually, I still can make a decision without visiting them. The info they sent me is the same as what I saw in their store. I had other stuff to do in SG so might as well go see visit them too. Thanks. What makes you decide to get from them instead of others? I only went through Tomei lumiere series so far, wondering if Jann Paul worth my effort of traveling there just to get it.

QUOTE(isaactham @ Oct 5 2015, 02:23 PM) They're known for their quality. I found them over the internet and they have alot of good reviews. All jewelry shops will say their diamond is the best, etc. You need to check it for yourself and not just rely on what they say. To really check if the diamond is good, you need to analyze it with the Ideal scope, Aset scope and the hearts and arrows scope. All the local shops I went to including Tomei only have the hearts and arrows scope but not the Ideal and ASET scope. Those scopes are more impt to check the light leakages. Anyway, I saw the Lumiere series too. The proportions isn't really that great. You can check using this http://www.pricescope.com/tools/hcaBest is to find one with a score under 1.4 then check with the scopes. Problem I had was none of the local shops had proper scopes to check... No proper scopes, have to agree with that. Thanks for your information.

Those diamond rings sure are expensive. Right now my ring have a larimar stone, but maybe in a few years it will get upgraded for diamond + larimar (I want to keep this personal touch). Me and my husband met during our vacation time at the Dominican Republic, and larimar is a local good there (it means a lot to us). This post has been edited by JoyceBarton: Oct 6 2015, 10:46 AM

My experience it shouldnt be 5x your salary... burst your budget for other stuff..
Just bring your future fiance to the shop and choose which wedding ring her prefer...you know la..we men dont know how to value that thing...
it just a piece of rock...which is no value... go to Times Square or Midvalley or Sg wang at there a lot of selling rings i get at Sungai wang... with 7k budget...
at 10k budget you will get cert for the diamond which is just show that the piece of rock having cert same as you get a dog or cat which come with gud breed...hahahha...
Gud luck with window shopping for the ring and wedding... and keep in control with the budget....dont burst it...
