I am looking for a 3 ct. or larger H or better color round diamond. I have looked at many GIA certs on the web and noticed that many SI1 stones look worse than alot of SI2 stones. Is this possible and if so, why??? I am currently considering( just considering) a 3+ ct. G SI2 stone. It has an ideal cut and ex/ex for polish and symmetry. The table looks very clean - 3 little dots toward the side of the table, some needles and a feather around the very edge of the stone. Why does this look better than most of the SI1 stones I have looked at????? I have been told it is eyeclean but everyone's eyes are different and I seem to see everything.
I am also looking into H color SI1's. Should I forget the SI2 and stick with SI's in H color??? I have time to wait for the perfect stone so please be truthful. THanks for your advice.
