4 months upgrade journey - E-Ring + Wedding band

[GemmaEdet]

First of all, would like to thank you all who has given me massive help/advice in my diamond search journey !
Started in Jan, looking in the B&M shops in hatton garden. Then after great education / advice i get from PS, started my diamond searching journey.
Cancelled order once !, Return item once !, and this one, i am finally keeping this third one !.
Special thanks to Lorelei and Stone Cold who have to put up with my never-ending questions !
And this final stunner D VS2 is spotted out by Stone Cold.. thanks a million !

I have 0.26 ct E-Ring given by my hubby when we just graduated from uni 5 yrs ago.
For the 5 yr anniversary, Hubby offers me an engagement ring as a present.

Here's the work I have done.
old 0.26 ct E-Ring --> one ear stud + Platinum band
New diamond ring 0.91ct D VS2.

Here're the pictures.

Thanks Stone Hunter !.
Definitely !.. Will take a few more pictures when I receive them on Tuesday.
The jeweller did a fantastic job. My old ring is now a beautiful plain wedding band, same width as the diamond ring.
Can''t recognise it !.

Thanks Steel !.
We''re not totally there yet.
Still need to claim the extra tax from UK Custom.
Also.. another question I would like to ask everyone for opinion.

The ERing and Wedding band has a tiny gap.. does it bother you guys.
... I don''t want to alter the E-Ring setting, nor alter the shape of the wedding band.

..... wondering...

I don''t know what that engraving is ...wondering..
Also i can''t find the platinum hall mark on the ring... maybe i shall get back to jeweller and ask about it.
