I'm new to pricescope and have been reading these forums for some time. Like many newbie's I have had the dilemma of finding the "perfect" diamond.

A diamond that I am looking at has the following specifications and I need all of your expert opinions regarding whether this diamond is any good.

Radiant cut
measurements: 7.38 x 6.55 x 3.99 mm
depth 60.9
table 67%
crown heigh- 10
girdle- medium to slightly thick
cutlet- none
finish:
polish-good
symmetry- good
clarity grade- vs1
color grade- E
fluorescence- none

Based on the cut guide by David Atlas I'm concerned that my table is too large and that my crown height is too small. The diamond is gorgeous but I can't help being scientific about all the numbers.

Thanks for any advice.

Welcome Premium Cut.....       

One of the best ways to see if a diamond jumps out at you is to ask your jewler to line up a few radiants for you.  I made the mistake of looking at just one at a time.  Until I learned more on PS here, I saw a big difference in their looks.  What i thought was pretty looking by itself, suddenly it showed not much "life" in it.  Numbers will help you toward a pretty rock, but "seeing is believing"!!  

good luck w/ your search and keep us posted.....
