No offense, but that's one strange custom!That's a gorgeous setting! I've noticed that rings that cut straight across my finger make my fingers look even shorter than they already are. This setting would nestle onto your left ring finger beautifully.
When I got married, we belonged to a church that was down on jewelry. Engaged women wore their wrist watches on their right wrist as a signal that they were engaged. But that didn't work very well outside of the church, and not at all after we married; guys kept hitting on me in the bus and refused to believe me when I said I was happily married, so eventually I gave up and bought a ring. Mine has a large opal, in a setting that doesn't cut straight across my finger. At the time I bought it, opals were seriously undervalued, which is why I could afford it. Give me opals over diamonds any time!
As for resetting the stones in your second E ring, have you considered having them made into earrings?

As for resetting. I already own a pair of diamond studs, which are extremely good and a nice size. My 2 other e-rings are not the same size diamonds so I wouldn't be able to make earrings out of them. I did make one necklace of the first. I could make another necklace, just something different than the solitaire. Maybe some kind of drop effect instead. I have other smaller stones which could be reused to give it more bling. I just haven't seen anything that makes me want to spend the money to do it.
I really do love that modern setting I posted the most out of everything I've seen but as Karen mentioned it might sit too high up. I might get in touch with someone that does custom jewelry to see if they could replicate it but bring it down a notch.
