Help please! Best idea for reusing this diamond?

Just throwing out one more suggestion… bezel in a bracelet. Chain or bangle. When I had my bezel bracelet I hardly took it off. I only reset it because I wear long sleeves and never saw it.
 
Just me, but I'd make an anniversary ring for my husband with it. No point of it sitting around collecting dust.
 
You’ve all been so helpful, thank you. Just one last question - which metal would be better to use for a pendant? White gold or platinum?

For a pendant I prefer WG ‘cause it’s shinier.
 
White gold feel lighter on the neck?
 
Mine is 18k and despite having a pretty thin chain seems very durable. I don’t find it moves much at all. Sometimes the diamond flips over when I’m moving around but it doesn’t bother me.

I would personally suggest platinum if you plan to wear it all the time and rarely take it off. Durable, won't need re-plating and hypoallergenic.

Yes that was my initial thought. It’s just been sat there for eight years!!
 
Seems like mixed response on metal, due to my laziness I just want to make sure it’s durable! My earrings are white and rose gold but they are so light and small, I think a pendant would get more wear and tear, although less than a ring. Hmmm……
