Is the Tiffany Diamond by the Yard necklace worth getting?

I just received this as a gift and as much as I love it, the tip of the diamond on the back keeps poking me! Anybody have any idea on how to prevent it from poking you?

I wear mine all the time. The first day I wore it, I noticed the diamond was poking me, but then I got used to it. Now I don't notice it at all.
 
I love my platinum DBTY which I believe is 0.19ct. It layers beautifully with pendants and really sparkles, and I think the floating bezel setting is done better by Peretti than anyone.

I know I could have got a much bigger non-Tiffany diamond for my money - although the DBTY setting does make those little diamonds look bigger than they are. It's simply a matter of personal preference. I know many people are concerned with diamond stats and would rather have a bigger solitaire without the T&Co name, some just love that copyrighted style and will pay the Tiffany price.
 
Hi. I am not sure what size .38 means. Is this the 3,5,7 size diamond in the DBTY. It is pretty!

I'm curious too since that doesn't seem to be available - was this a typo @princessLIL or did they discontinue it? I will be sad if they did, because it looks to be the perfect size!

If you are looking on the web sites they usually have the small diamond carats ie 0.03, 0.07,... 0.17. A full one carat is 1.0 and 0.38 is close to 1/2 a carat. If you go into the actual store you can choose a bigger and better quality diamond.
 
Mine poked but at first, but then I didn't notice it after wearing it for a week. I think if you wear the necklace where the diamond sits in the hollow of your neck, the poking would be less noticeable. Also, the bigger the diamond, the bigger the poke. lol
