wedding bands from Lee Hwa

*back dated entry*

after 3 months of waiting, finally gotten my wedding bands last sat (17th may)..... actually we supposed to get the ring about 1 month earlier but due to some problems, there was delay...

we ordered the ring in Feb... as mentioned previously, we went to almost all the popular jewellery stores in SG but decided on Lee hwa... our rings were under special promotion which was almost 50% off... the final total for both rings cost S$1176... i think that's quite a good deal especially when my ring has a row of diamonds... of cause those are not GIA certified diamonds, but they still cost a fair bit of $ if you buy it without discount....

when we purchased the ring, the staff told us a rough gauge will be 3 months wait as the stores dont have our sizes... sadly... we both have fairly big, fat fingers =(  so somewhere in april, the Lee hwa staff informed us that the rings are ready for collection.... like wah.... 1 month earlier than expected wor.... so we went down but then to our disappointment, the ring sizes dont fit... mine was 1 size smaller, still can squeeze in but hard to take out.. but for my bf, it was like 2-3 size smaller.... i guess the problem arise because there was no available ring sizes for the design we want, so we had to try the sizes from other ring designs.... i understand that the ring sizes may vary slightly for each design but like 2-3 size different for my bf, that's like wah... BIG difference.... so no choice... have to alter the ring.....

then early may, the staff called us again to go down to try the ring... this time the size fit = good but then there was this white speck on the inner lining of my ring & some scratches on bf's ring... i mean under normal circumstances i will probably make do with the rings but i felt for wedding bands, they should be as perfect as possible when i bought them.... so the staff has kindly agreed to help us re-polish the ring & check the coating, etc....

finally, last week we managed to get our rings!!! actually the staff called us much earlier time but i was away in HK, so didnt get the call.... this time, everything looks nice & shine... perfect =) like all wedding bands, you will be given the free ring pillow... then we also joined the Lee Hwa member, 2 coupon for free polishing of rings within 2yr & a sure win lucky dip which i gotten a $80 voucher... haha....

the long awaited ring
bf = on the left & mine on the right.... i tried to take a clearer picture but somehow the camera just failed to focus.... the ring has this matt lining in the middle, then mine has additional rows of diamonds....despite having some hiccups in getting the rings, the staff were nice & polite, really appreciate the services.... in conclusion, i think Lee Hwa is a good place to get wedding bands especially when you choose those designs under promotion  =)
