I think I thought the center stone was going to be a little larger, but I like it just the way it is, seems less clunky. It's not different than what was pictured, but my mind's eye thought porportions were different. I'm right now a 9.5, but I did not think I'd squeeze a size 9 on my finger. The 10 is slightly big, but fits as expected. I just wish the rings came in half sizes.
