I think I agree with all, if not the majority of the house, including your husband. Definitely the first one, it stands out more, unlike the second, where it looks like it's all one big blur (no offense).

Hey,

It's been months since I got it back from resizing. Yes, I chose the solitaire over the diamond channel set e- ring. It was the right choice to make since I can change out wedding bands. Here are more pictures I promised to post. In addition to the Tiffany channel wedding band, I've added a custom made baguette or square cut (not sure exactly which it is) to stack up.

I tried wearing a spacer between the diamond band and solitaire, but my SA said it was not necessary since the channel set band will not damage the prong.

Now, I'm debating if I should get a U-shaped diamond band so it doesn't touch the solitaire. I noticed that by wearing the solitaire with any straight edge bands, regardless of diamond or plain band, the base of the solitaire ring that below the prongs (the one that sticks out) do get some scratches. I supposed nothing will prevent that unless you wear the solitaire alone or wear it with an U-shaped wedding band.

I think my question is now:

WHICH BAND DO YOU PREFER? It's a bit late anyway to ask this question since I own both bands, which which do you prefer anyway? The baguette or square cut channel is rather thick compared to the thinness of the e-ring band,but I do love the extra bling that the bigger baguette diamonds provide.

Well, you're gonna get scratches. No matter what you wear next to it, metal on metal is gonna scratch. I prefer the channel band, I don't like how wide the other band is with your e-ring, too wide and takes a lot away from your stone. You could try that curved Elsa Peretti band, if you wanted. But I think the channel is good.

Well, at long as the rubbing of two platinum pieces does not totally displace the curve of the prong base, then I'm fine. I was looking at my ring through the loupe and got paranoid when I saw some scratches.....Ouch! But you're right.

I do like the look of the two bands together without the e-ring. I think I'll stick with the Tiffany channel band with the e-ring since they go better together. Then probably add a few thin bands if I need more blings. I remember you didn't like the idea of getting another Tiffany channel band and wear them on both sides of the e-ring. I haven't look into the curved Elsa Peretti band yet, maybe the next time I stop by Tiff.

I didn't love the channel sandwich as much, no. But if you do, that's for you to choose! It's not my set!!! As anal-retentive as I am, I like the look of a plain spacer and a diamond band BELOW the solitaire.

LOL! Apparently, no one so far like the channel set e-ring, not even my SA.

I have to sleep on this one. DH really likes the classic look of a single solitaire. He said the channel set is too busy and prefers that I stay with the classic. He prefers the simple look.

Any Tiffany ring will be gorgeous! But I agree with everyone here and your man... the classic is THE RING. (Okay I'm biased b/c I have one myself!) It's so classic and really lets the "big" diamond stand out and be the star. You can pair it with almost anything whereas the channel setting will definitely limit you. I have a 2.10 classic with the 2.2 mm "shared prong" diamond band and I loooove it. But you can almost put anything with the classic solitaire.

Both are gorgeous but I vote classic all the way.
