Best pre-selected diamond engagement ring for New Years

“I’m planning to propose marriage to my girlfriend on New Years Eve, after an extensive amount of research, I have concluded that Brian Gavin is the best source for hearts and arrows diamonds online. I’ve spent a lot of time comparing the hearts and arrows images of the top brands of hearts and arrows diamonds, and Brian Gavin Signature hearts and arrows diamonds definitely seem to be the most consistent. What I’m trying to figure out is whether it is better to go with a Brian Gavin pre-selected diamond engagement ring, or to choose a Brian Gavin Signature round diamond, and add the classic Tiffany knife edge style ring in platinum to the order? What are the advantages and disadvantages of those options? My budget is around $7.5k and I’d like some advice on the balance of diamond carat weight, color, and clarity, that I should consider to maximize wow factor.”

The diamond is not actually red, nor will the hearts pattern be visible without the scope, which uses a red filter to make it possible for us to see the hearts pattern.
