Hi Everyone
I didn't realize this post was resurrected!
Yes I still love my ring after months now!! I look at it all the time. The setting is perfectly proportioned for the size of the diamond, a thicker band would have made the diamond look smaller. The size of the upside down set french cuts is really amazing, tiny tiny little diamonds that still send out color. I love the fine millgraining, I love the claw prongs, I love the ring. It is a comfortable ring to wear and I wear it. I work in a SICU setting with a very busy trauma population so I am very hands on at work. So far so good with durability.
The AVC diamond is M -azing. For an M it looks reallllly white in most light. The only time I can really tell that it's warm is early morning or twilight in natural light with the ring tilted so I can see under the crown. When I tell jewelers it's an M they don't believe me. I think it is a sign of just how well the stone is cut. As for the diamond--- I can't describe to you how beautiful it is. The height of the crown was something that I was worried about but it is now one of my favorite parts. Without the crown height the diamond wouldn't be the same. I have memorized the facets I love it that much. The color that comes from the diamond is amazing. Gold, green, blue, pink, red, orange all there. But the more amazing colors are the pastels... In certain light the maltese cross in the pavilion cast off pastel color. Warm pastels that look as though they are glazed on a piece of silvered glass.
Keeping it clean became an issue, ethol based hand cleaning gel (at work) schmutzes up my ring badly. Solution--- windex and a child's toothbrush mixed with a drop of dish detergent and scrub. Keeps it very very sparkly now. Even gets the dirt out of the pavilion (which is really annoying).
This is my ongoing review of my new LG washing machine... ah er Ring hehe hope it is helpful
