1st Time Poster - Need help picking 1.4c Round GIA3x

[roundandwhite1]

I'd like some advice from anyone who has an opinion. Experts to avid posters welcome. I've already picked out the band from a local jewler, which is a 1.4K 0.6c VS2 G halo cushion cut.

Here is what I'm looking for.
1.40c-1.45c Round
G-H color
SI1-VS2 - eye clean to the average person
GIA3x cut
HCA 2.0 or below

I'm looking to spend $9.5K - $11K for the diamond (I'd ideally like to be around $10K). The first one below has my eye, but I'm also looking at stones from other sites. Obviously, I'm waiting to get the idealscopes before making a decision.

I have to run for the night, but I wanted to bump your thread for you because there are lots of people around right now that can help you with this.

I like your first stone, as well. It's a 1.4 HCA, and the inclusion is most likely prong-able.

As for the other two, they're 60/60 stones, and while they have nice spread, they'll most likely lack fire and scintillation through their larger tables.

Are you open to an I color?

Here's a branded stone in your price range, and while it's a bit lighter in weight, it's nearly the same diameter as your #1 and it has an AGS Ideal grade for light performance with ASET/IS to match:

I couldn't find anything with potential on James Allen. Maybe someone here with a better eye can find one.

Thanks for the advice. Just an update, I have a picture of the diamond but they cannot get me the IS unless I purchase first. Wondering if I can get a few more posters to weigh in. Thanks!

Well, someone jumped on my #1 pick. Guess I should have known there would be lurkers on site. Pretty sad, but a reality. Thanks for the advice.

Really nice stone, very close to the dimensions of the one that was purchased -

1.32ct, G, with a great cut. WELL under budget. I'd contact them and see how eye clean this stone looks:
