Check out the design cutting called eight hearts eight arrows (八心八箭
. That is supposedly a very popular cutting in HK a while back. I'm not sure if they came out with any other new cutting styles.
八心八箭 is supposed to maximize the bling factor. THen ofcourse the number 8 and the chinese is meaningful. Then there is the arrows and hearts in the name that also makes it romantic. When you view it a certain way you will see the hearts and arrows in the cutting. Ask the jeweler about it, have them point it out for you. I am not sure that ALL jeweler do this cutting in HK, but it's been a while so that could have changed.
From what I understand, A promise ring is something high school kids got their girlfriends and it's supposed to be a very small diamond.
At your budget, consider 1 ct or 1+ct and then see how high you can get in terms of cut clarity and ring design....
Diamond prices are negotiable.
There are a lot of jewelers in HK rolling out a ton of fabulous designs. If you go above a certain spending level in HK...they bring you in a room and serve you tea while you choose your jewelry in a more private setting. However they do not display their very best merchandise under their display cases. You have to request for it.
When you shop for luxury items in HK, I would advise dressing up for the occasion. HK is one of the most materialistic places on earth. The sales people will judge you by the way you dress. They will decide to service you or ignore you based on the way you dress.
Good luck.
