QUOTE(Jacxon @ Nov 23 2015, 07:47 PM) did contact them before.. JP diamonds so much better in quality. Actually I went to JP 3 times already, but each time also can't decide on the settings. Maybe 4th or 5th time will finally pull the trigger I will say quality assured with the scopes and video... reshare my video.. you can request for it if can't go down.. actually mine i didn't request.. they sent it direct to me.. |

QUOTE(kambingkoh @ Aug 26 2016, 03:29 PM) HCA is only used as a diamond rejection tool, not selection tool. Some jeweller will tell you it is not relevant anymore, but then, I will still use it as rejection tool. The reason why it cannot be used as selection is that it only take into account 17 facets out of 57 facets, according to: http://www.goodoldgold.com/consumers-guide-hca Aha, lucky the one I picked averaging 1.9~2.4. Guess I need to pay the showroom another visit to view the actual diamond.As a general rule, you have to reject diamonds that fall below a score of 2. Read here: http://beyond4cs.com/shapes/round/hca-scores/ Also, it is only applicable for round brilliant cut, aka the traditional 57 facets diamond. So any extra facets or fancy cut shape probably can't use it. Once you done calculating the score, you still have to look into the hearts and arrows and light performance, where most local shops won't be able to provide. So, that's the reason I opt to buy online at WhiteFlash instead of local stores. You can read about it here: http://myengagementringexperience.blogspot.my/. |

QUOTE(kambingkoh @ Aug 26 2016, 04:34 PM) JannPaul is good. They will educate their customers well. They will even show you the IdealScope, Hearts & Arrows, Light Performance, etc. They have a series of Youtube videos you may want to check it out. Too bad they are only in Singapore. Yea, been to Jann Paul 5 times already but the price is slightly higher compared to Michael Trio. So most probably she'll opt for the latter choice. As long as you encounter someone that says "cut is not important", "triple excellent is good enough", i think you can walk away. There is always a reason why a similar specs diamond is priced differently than the other... and such scenario may occur even in the same jeweller. Since I knew of custom jeweler, I never went looking at ring with brands already |

Estimate total with setting around SGD6k Managed to find another similar diamond with similar score.
