Almost 60-60 diamond thought

[Jenna Ellis Fitz]

I purchased this diamond for 10 year upgrade and am second guessing it because of the proportions. It’s Triple Ex so I assumed it was great and now I’m worried. Thoughts?

Looks beautiful in the photo!
Did you run the numbers through the HCA tool?

Its crown angle is really shallow at 32.5. That gives a low crown height.

Are you able to switch to another diamond?

At this point what matters is whether YOU love it. What are your impressions?

@Jenna Ellis Fitz i have to be honest with you… I usually do not care for the aesthetic of a diamond with a large table because I don’t care for the large table reflection but yours does NOT have that look, in my opinion (good thing). As I said, it looks very nice in the photo.
What is the carat weight? These proportions give you great spread, so you are getting a lot of bang for your buck in terms of how much finger real estate coverage this stone offers and that size might appeal to you so consider that as it may be a plus for you.
Also, what is the color? The almost 60-60 offers a stone that has more brilliance and that aspect can aid it to appear more colorless.

I liked it until I noticed that it was outside the norm. It definitely sparkles but I worry about the small inclusions (I have to really search) and then it does have medium fluorescence.

Carat weight is 2.51, but measures 8.88 by 8.91 so definitely a spread. I just worry I’m scrutinizing instead of enjoying it.

I ran them, but lost it and now have no uses left I want to say it was a 1?

Med fluor doesn't have any impact to be honest. And if you like it, I'd try to just stop letting it bug you since you already bought it.

I think your stone is gorgeous!
I have a 60/60 stone and doubted it immediately after researching bc it truly is a personal preference. I love my stone! Plus I have ACA studs that I love and my 60/60 stacks really well against my studs.

It looks nice and bright in your photo with edge-to-edge brightness! No one walks around with all the numbers and scores - they just walk around with abit of cosmic magic on their hand. Enjoy it! It represents so much wonderfulness.

I had a 60/60 and it performed beautifully.
