Yay! They said it would be about a week till it was finished, but I have it in my possession exactly 7 days after I ordered!
Some of you might know I was torn on size, metal color, and where to order. Well I went with BGD over Tiffany's because I knew I would never regret white gold (I was afraid to do Tiffany's YG and I don't like Plat). And I prefer BGD bezels and "ear" placement over Bluenile's. Plus I felt with BGD I would have a diamond everybit as nice as the Tiffany's ones since BG cuts all his diamond melee to ideal specs. There are definite arrows in this baby.
So here it is .16 H VS white gold 16"
In this next picture it looks like the top of the diamond and the bezel are "rough" or "uneven" it's just a reflection off the black book it's sitting on.
Also, I noticed while looking at other photos that in close-up's these solitaires look like a little animal (mouse?) with a head and ears. I will tell you this is MUCH less noticeable in real life (or in "real size").
I hope this helps some of you who were trying to decide on a DBTY too.
BTW, having seen both BGD and Tiffany's IRL, I'd say they are pretty much identical as far as bezel and chain goes.
I still think Tiffany's yellow gold DBTY are the prettiest ever (because their YG is so beautiful and the contrast with the diamond is just divine) , I just don't wear any YG, and DH doesn't like YG, so this was the next best thing and I am VERY pleased.
