Yep, but this is 2020 and the women bought into it so we get to shut up and write the check



It doesnt matter what it's worth. All that matters is what other women think it might be worth.

When I commissioned my fiance's ring, I started the process by looking at lab grown diamonds. What I found is that their quality drops off significantly above a certain carat which I believe was anything above 1. The clarities and cut qualities were very poor as well. The rating agency for man made diamonds is not affiliated with GIA and there are pretty significant inconsistencies in similarly rated man made diamonds. I would never advise someone to consider a diamond an investment since it will instantly lose value when you buy it. However, getting a GIA diamond does give you some assurances that you're getting what you expect.

First though.....

Pics!

Now, onto the enhanced diamond. I would avoid that. Your wife finds out about the enhanced part and it might as well be a cubic zirconia!

If only there were things worth more than diamonds if you want to waste money

O wait

There are tons of more rare and valuable items than diamonds which are not rare nor valuable

When picking jewelry recently for the Gf, I had the jeweler put out diamonds, moissanite, and rubies. Along with yellow gold, white gold, platinum, and palladium settings. Told her to just pick the prettiest.

She picked moissanite and platinum.

Honestly, saved a few thousand dollars and the stone is gorgeous compared to the flawless diamond it was next to.

Well I'm not, but if I was, it wouldn't be from buying diamonds.
