Hi all!
I am new to PS, have been lurking a little over the past few weeks as I prepare to take the plunge for a proposal ring, but there are some queries that I have, pertaining to how a diamond is classified as an AGS000 rock.
Looking at some of the AGS reports made available by WF and JA for the AGS 0 cuts in the region of 0.4-0.7 carat range, I noticed that it is easy to determine the AGS000 cuts from the WF reports, as the subsections of Light Performance, Symmetry and Polish are clearly stated.
However, when it came to AGS reports made avaliable by JA, only the cut grading was displayed, with no subsection to specify the grades of the individual components.
The two AGS reports I referred to are:
WF - http://www.whiteflash.com/pimg/certificates/ci_AGS-1040371490055.jpg
JA - http://www.jamesallen.com/certs/B206-812CER.JPG
My questions are these...how then do I know whether or not the latter diamond is a AGS000? Why are there 2 different formats for the AGS report even though they are both recent reports? Is one report format ''superior'' to the other?
Thank you for taking the time to entertain this poor newbie in diamond seeking!
