I think the difference between the 1.2 and the 1.5 is noticeable, and the difference between the 1.2 and the 1.7 is more noticeable.
I do not think the difference between the 1.5 and the 1.7 is noticeable enough to warrant a big price difference.
However, I think the fact you think that 1.7 is your magic size and that you will be happy with it for a long time to come....then it is maybe worth the price increase. If it costs $3-5K to not be looking at upgrading the 1.5 again in a few months (or not being entirely happy with it) then go for the 1.7.
It would not cost that much, maybe $1000 more. We are talking SI2s here and it keeps the cost down, even with H color.
Then I think that given you have your heart set on a 1.7ct, it makes sense to go for the 1.7ct. The $1,000 savings for me would not be worth the "what if" as it sounds like a 1.5ct for you would still be a "compromise".
