vs.

1.04 I VS1   6.66-6.6x3.97  depth 59.9 table 63 crown 12 pav 44.0 thin-med girdle

none of thee above,have you search p.s. for better cuts ? you already know the problems with these 2 stone.

it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone.

Yes, I know the problems with each but HAVE to choose the lesser of two evils. 

Which "problem" diamond is the better looker??

why are you stuck on these 2 stones ?

it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone.

Because I already paid, it's a done deal for-- either or.  I just need help with choosing "either" "or" on paper. 

it is always harder to find a "mind clean" stone than a eye clean stone.

Hi Todd,

When comparing two well cut or ideal cut diamonds to determine which is more beautiful , the truth is you have to look at them yourself as you cannot tell from the numbers.

The same truth applies in this case of two mediocre/poorly cut diamonds, in fact it is probably more important in your case.

You have to look at them to know.

Go compare them.
