I recently bought a 0.05 carat yellow gold dbty style (not tiffany) but am having second thoughts on the Diamond size. I'm trying to decide if I should get the 0.08 instead. However I plan to get s bigger size in the future to layer with (maybe 0.12 ish) so not sure if it would look better with the bigger size difference (layered with the one I have now) or is it too insubstantial? Any suggestions or opinions would be appreciated!

How badly do you want the 0.08? I think that as long as the larger diamond like 0.12 has a longer chain, both the 0.05 and 0.08 would work well. A lot of the time it's down to personal preference, I think.

Could you go into store and try layering with the two options? I recently had the dilemma with the Tiffany bean sizes and it made the choice easier to wear the chains in person and see, as opposed to feverishly trying to imagine how the sizes would look. Hope this helps :D

I went and purchased the CBTY in pink sapphire for my sister... Thank you everyone here for all of the suggestions!! :love:

I also found myself looking at DBTY in rose gold...

And my former Mother-in-Law (who was shopping with me) decided that she now wants a DBTY in yellow gold...

:drool:

Dangerous, dangerous.


Can anyone tell me... If I want something very simple to wear daily and not even think about it... Is the smallest 0.03ct DBTY in rose gold worth the purchase? Or should I really save the extra $200 for the bigger 0.07ct stone? To me, a bigger or smaller diamond isn't an issue. But I'm wondering what others' opinions might be?

FMIL has already decided that she wants the 0.08ct in yellow gold for $615. I'm just undecided as to whether I should get the simple 0.03ct, or save the additional $200 for the 0.07ct?
As much as I would LOVE the 0.17ct -- There's no way I can spend $1,200 after buying my 0.14ct DBTY earrings! (The earrings will arrive TOMORROW NIGHT, by the way. :happydance: YAY!!)

IMHO the .03 is just so small...too small. get the .07, no question.

Don't get the smallest diamond. It's not worth it. I actually went in Tiffany today to buy the .08 ct and left with the .12ct after seeing how small the diamonds really are. The earrings are next on my list (gorgeous in person). It's too funny how we've purchased in the reverse order.

If it's just $200 diff, then get the .07. I think 0.03 may not be worth it. Or simply save more for the 0.17.

But i was just wondering - since the back of the diamond (the cutlet) is exposed, would a bigger diamond, eg the .17 poke you more than the .07? Thats something i've been thinking abt myself. I wld love to get one too but I wld hate to pay quite a bit for something and find it uncomfortable to wear. Have you tried on all 3 sizes at the store? Can u feel the "poking" much? Some people dont feel it at all, so i'm curious.

I had a 0.12ct (long gone, sadly) and I could feel the cutlet scratching/poking me when the diamond moved/shifted. The diamond poked out the back and was annoying.

I tried on the 0.07ct in store and it wasn't large enough to poke. The store didn't have a 0.03ct that I could try on, but obviously that wouldn't do any poking! :roflmfao:
