1. 5.0 out of 5 stars Nice, great price
I've used this Canon GL2 for a long time. There's a reason it's a classic: it's beautiful, very classy, and for whatever reason, it just hangs right and looks great.

2. 5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, yet aesthetically pleasing.
I first saw this Canon GL2 when it was paired with a LaCiE flash memory device shaped like a key. While relatively uninterested in that product, this one struck me as a pleasant alternative...

10. 5.0 out of 5 stars I truly love this Canon GL2
I received this today. It was from my husband for our 2 wedding Anniversary. I picked it out. What led me to choose this Canon GL2 was the great price for a full sets, and the customer reviews I read. I'm thrilled with this Canon GL2. It is everything I expected. I will be ordering a new enhancer or anniversary band to compliment it soon. There are several to choose from and the prices are great. Again...I truly love this Canon GL2! Anyone looking for a good Canon GL2 at a great price certainly should look here

11. 5.0 out of 5 stars it's a great Canon GL2 for the price
I was sceptical of this Canon GL2 because Price: USD1499 is so low, but when my fiance was on one knee and opened that box, all my doubts went away. This Canon GL2 is simply gorgeous!!! It's so clear and sparkles so nicely! The pictures DO NOT do it justice! It's so much prettier in person. The band is very thin, which I like because I have small hands. It seems like the sent me a bigger size then asked for. A 6 fits me just right, and theCanon GL2 is pretty loose. The only thing I can say that's negative is the quality that it was made. The setting in crooked, and there are only 4 little prongs holding the diamond in place. I'm afraid that I'll knock it on something and bend a prong and the Canon GL2 will be gone. But over all, it's a great Canon GL2 for the price!

14. 5.0 out of 5 stars it is a very goodCanon GL2
I purchased this Canon GL2 to complement my eternity wedding band. I agree with the other reviewer that the picture makes the band look a lot more substantial than it is. It is very thin and flat. Overall though, it is a very good and goes nicely with my band.

15. 5.0 out of 5 stars great value, and many compliments
This Canon GL2 is very pretty,The only disappointment is that the picture is not accurate- the band looks much more substantial and rounded- infact it is a very fine flat band-But, nevertheless I am still pleased- it is great value, and I have had many compliments.

18. 5.0 out of 5 stars Beyond my expectations
When we ordered this item we could not believe how low the price was. we have been looking for this Canon GL2 for a while and everywhere else the Canon GL2 prices were way beyond our means. Not only the Canon GL2 cases was a perfect fit, it looks classy and nobody could ever guess it is not expensive although, still good quality Canon GL2. Great buy
