HI,

I am looking to get a diamond for my GFs engagement ring and have been very thankful for all the info on PriseScope. I think I've narrowed it down to the carat size of around 2, maybe down to 1.75. We went together to look at different colors and clarity, I think the lowest we want to go is I color and SI1 clarity. I found the two diamonds below that seem to be a really good deal and have excellent HCA scores, but I could definitely be missing something. I would appreciate any opinion or advice you could give me.

Thank you

I don't like the large table on the first stone and the second one has no pictures or light return images posted. I recommend limiting your search to stones that have those. What is your budget?

Here are some parameters to help narrow down GIA Ex cut diamonds:

table: 54-58

depth: 60-62.3

crown angle: 34-35.0

pavilion angle: 40.6-41.0

Thank you for the suggestions. I thought the table on the first one might be an issue. I would like to stay under $15K, but lower would definitely be a bonus.
