Her favorites, in order, are:
Princess cut
Round cut
Emerald cut
Radiant cut

So if you've been wondering what to do with that big rock in the ring you got for the girl who left you, (or whatever the circumstances are, who am I to judge?), it's another option. I'm just going to go blow the cash on a rock anyway.

HMMMM

So if I trade you my wife's ring, come back with a bike, and then claim it under homeowner's insurance, this could work!

......dang it......the things I think about when it comes to motorcycles....

Try talking to her about alternative gemstones. I went with a sapphire. Or CZ, if you don't mind synthetics.

$5150, throw in the seat cowl, and the money over $5000 goes to TWT...

Seriously, who wouldn't like to get a new bike, AND donate $150 to keep this site up and running?

If you want something different Jarrods will let you take the ring and receipt and use the amount towards an upgrade just a thought but this diamond is a very nice one. The setting is platinum and the band is white gold.The diamond is almost a full carat I paid $4565.96

Re: 2011 Yamaha FZ8 in Flower Mound

Due to the unpredictable nature of women I'm taking the bike off the market for the moment. Nothing bad, just exploring other ways to get where we need to be.

If she decides to say yes or no to the proposal based on the value of the ring, you need to run. Our 3 rings costs a total of $93.00. They have worked for 38 years. Well, except for the rather expensive engagement ring upgrade we did for our 25 anniversary renewal of our vows.
