Isn''t 34.5 crown angle in #1 better than 35.0 in #2?
Correct me if I am wrong.

one could say that a 34.5 ca is better than a 35.0 (if one wanted to do that) but you have to remember that it is ALL of the angles working together that determine how the diamond will perform. i like the combination on the second one, but as i said before, both of them should be nice looking stones.

I''d prefer #1. It''s a bit shallower, angles are *fabulous*; thin to med girdle.....and a little more diameter. LOVE it.

I like #1 the best. I like a little shallower depth on a stone. I also love those angles. Just my $.02.
