Although it doesn't really make a difference unless someone is very, very closely examining your ring, you can tell cubic zirconia from a real diamond with the naked eye.
While I was looking around for rings for my fiance, a jeweler told me that to tell the difference, simply look at the diamond while it is in bright light. Apparently, real diamonds don't have a prism effect, while fake diamonds do.
Either way, good luck!
