Does this ring look good on me? Tiffany Etoile "engagement" ring

I loved the Tiffany Etoile engagement ring when we got engaged 15 years ago, but couldn't afford it. Went with a generic sticky-uppy prong setting, looked lovely but I could never get used to wearing it (sensory issues, also I am clumsy with a hands-on job). Eventually sold it and just wore my plain platinum wedding ring.

DH suggested getting an anniversary ring. I'm not keen on eternity rings, and in my browsing, found a few Etoiles (now long discontinued) for sale.

I've tried one on and it's so smooth and comfortable - it's 0.35ct in platinum. I love it. It's got all its paperwork, had it checked out in Tiffany with the owner, it's a great price. But I have zero sense of style so am not sure if it looks awful or nice, if the diamond looks too small and the band too big, etc. I'd be very grateful for opinions from you stylish people. Honesty is welcome! Thank you.

Edit: argh sorry for my giant hand. I can't resize. My ring size is actually small (H1/2 UK).

No I think it looks massive on you and too wide next to your wedding band.

I agree. The band is so wide it makes the diamond look small. It wouldn’t be to my taste.
But if you love it that’s all that matters.

Is this thread now going to be endless replies saying either...

Yes, the chunky ring looks great!

Or

No, you need something much narrower with your fingers.

Despite the OP not having that chunky ring any more and has updated saying she has bought a traditional narrow solitaire she is really happy with!
