Hello,
I am fairly new to this but wanted to get some thoughts on round diamonds in the following platinum setting. I would like to get over 1ct in size:

My budget is roughly $8,500 MAX for the diamond. I would like to go through a local jeweler, but need help on ensuring I pick a suitable diamond. If it is better to get the diamond online and have them set it, I will approach them with that option. Using a search on their website (that links to some online database), I found the following options. I don't believe any of them are that great, but I would appreciate some brief comments on their quality....and other suggestions as seen fit.

Thanks for any help that you can provide!!! Let me know of better options if you have suggestions. I thought a VS1 with color above G would be good.
