I personally prefer the embrace because I like delicate, intricate, feminine jewelry. however, if you prefer a more modern, tailored, stream-lined look, then your original choice of the bezel-set diamond is the right one. I guess it depends on your personal style since the rings are so different.
Just a little update: I've been very good and have been VERY patient...until the last couple of days LOL!! It's been 5 weeks today since my original e-ring was sent off to NYC to be re-set into the Embrace settingThey told me I'd have my new ring in 6 wks. I called my Tiffany store manager to get an update on Wednesday but haven't heard back. I'm pretty sure it's not going to be ready by Christmas and I'm pretty bummed because my fiance and I are going away on vacation soon and I really didn't want to be ring-less for the holidays

That sucks! Unfortunately this sounds pretty expected to me, because I don't really trust that company. But I will say this, I don't know what they promised specifically, but there's no way they were going to melt down your original and recast it. No jeweler could do that, platinum can't just be reused, it has to be re-refined. They would've probably removed the bezel head off the ring and repair that spot of the band. So here's hoping they can do that and find the original.
And for the record: if they want to fix this, it can be overnighted from NYC. Unless you are in another country besides the US/Canada anyway.
