GIA Grading... Crown and Pavillion???

Steve Rough Rock Total Posts: 13 Last Post: 7/1/2002 Member Since: 6/18/2002	Sorry if this has been answered before, but from all my research GIA is considered the most reputable diamond grader. The problem is, I also know that crown and pavillion angles (or percents) are very important, but GIA doesn't report that information. How can I use the Holloway Cut Advisor with a GIA diamond? How do I know I'm getting a great cut diamond if all I know is the table and depth? Thanks!

Steve Rough Rock Total Posts: 13 Last Post: 7/1/2002 Member Since: 6/18/2002	Hmm this is the first I've heard of those two reports. I can just ask the dealer for those? Or do I have to purchase a diamond that already has already had that report done? If I'm thinking of ordering online from DCD how would I go about getting those reports?

See Sarin Proportions. The measurement takes 1-2 minutes and provides you with diamond proportions including crown and pavilion angles. Pricescope
