Three quarter carat, 0.75 carat diamond e-ring for Valentines Day?
I’m interested in this 0.758 carat, F-color, VS-1 clarity, Brian Gavin Signature diamond, but it is from the Advance Selection inventory, and I’m wondering about the possibility of getting the diamond set in an e-ring and getting delivery of it by Valentines Day. I’m also a bit hesitant to purchase a diamond sight unseen off of the internet, but even more so without any of the usual diamond details, clarity photographs, and scope images that you usually provide; which I’ve read are critical to being able to determine the degree of optical precision that the diamond has been cut to; I learned about that concept by reading your blog! The setting that I’m interested in is the fishtail pave with truth head by Brian Gavin, what kind of lead time am I looking at?
Brian Gavin Advance Selection Diamonds:
Whether you purchase a Brian Gavin Signature round diamond from our existing inventory of Hearts and Arrows diamonds, or pre-order a diamond from the factory that is currently in-production, the reality is that you are buying a Brian Gavin Signature Hearts & Arrows diamond, the production standards are the same.
Since Brian Gavin photographs each diamond in our inventory individually, and does not use stock images to represent the diamonds that exist in our exclusive in-house inventory, we can not provide clarity photographs, high resolution diamond video, or images of the diamond as seen through an ASET Scope, Ideal Scope, or Hearts and Arrows viewer, until the diamond has been polished, and has returned from being graded by the American Gem Society Laboratory.
But we do know the basic details of the diamond, such as the carat weight, color, clarity, and basic proportions, and provide these details along with a stock video image that serves as a placeholder until the actual diamond can be photographed. While the sample video of a diamond that is pictured to the left is not a video of the 0.758 carat, F-color, VS-1 clarity, Brian Gavin Signature round diamond that you are considering, the reality is that it is an excellent representation of what you can expect to see.
Brian Gavin sets the standard of excellence:
Over the past 15 years, more than a quarter of a million people have purchased diamonds via the internet that have been produced under the supervision of Brian Gavin, and rave review after rave review has been written about how impressed they have been with their purchase, thus you can rest assured that the diamond you purchase from Brian Gavin will live up to the legacy of visual performance that has been established by the Brian Gavin Signature diamond brand.
But you don’t have to take our word for it, pre-order the diamond from the factory, we’ll move it to the front of the production line, and send it out to the AGS Laboratory to be graded; then we’ll post a copy of the diamond grading report, along with all of the usual diamond clarity photographs, high resolution video, and reflector scope images when it gets back from being graded; and if you don’t like anything about the Brian Gavin advance selection diamond that you ordered, you can return it for a full refund.
In terms of production time, please allow 10 – 14 business days for Brian Gavin advance selection diamonds to be finished, lab graded, and processed by our diamond photography division; this is about the same production time that is required to custom make the Brian Gavin fishtail pave ring with truth head, so it is an ideal scenario. Obviously it is always best to order a diamond engagement ring as early as possible when a major holiday such as Valentines Day is just around the corner! Lots of people are looking to get engaged at this time of year, so we appreciate as much lead time as possible.
