Hi All,

What is your opinion on this diamond...

Round Brilliant, 1.72,H,SI-1 (Eye Clean), Excellent Cut (1A Classification), No Florescence, Price $9,900, GIA Cert.

The diamond looks beautiful. I am just worried that I am not maximizing the diamond given my budget.  I was wondering if I should ask the jeweler to search for a few more diamonds at this price, maybe a smaller VS2,G.  I am worried that H might be too far down the color spectrum. 

If you had $10,000 to spend, then how would you maximize the diamond.

Thanks!
Josh

Hi, Josh......from the specs, it looks beautiful, and you've confirmed that with your eye.  I'd go with that. 

H is definitely not too far down the color spectrum......I own a 1.24 H, and it's crisp white.  Really allows you to maximize your budget.  Honestly, if you put the H next to a G stone, you wouldn't be able to see the difference, so why pay more for a G?
