An experiment

Go to the Dali Diamond Company website, click on either Pop-up or Fullscreen, click on Products, click on Range, wait ten seconds, and tell me what you see.

Hi,

I saw some cool flash animations of rough diamonds and a man louping a piece of rough ,and then I got an inexplicable craving for popcorn.

So who's hearts and arrows pattern is it?

This ? The HA& pic is the only grainy image on the site!

I can't see anything extraordinary... The web cut is not new. The site is: among the latest AGX releases.
There is one funny note in their "profile" though. They say "our business is based on personal relationships" and... this does sound a bit strange after a few dozen papers on corruption. Of course they don't mean that, but this is what the line reads like.

Just a coincidence, I'm sure. I dunno why the low rez.

 

[reena]

i still don't get it!

D Riley.

What a spectacular, top-of-the-class hearts and arrows pattern!

...Queerly, "Dali" diamonds did not produce that gem of gems, nor do they have Whiteflash's permission to use the photo.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Spoiler!

 

[dimonbob]

Bingo!

That is a copy of the H&A pattern taken from the Pricescope H&A diamond tutorial.

That is an A CUT ABOVE diamond that has been sold a long while back!

Rank,

I spoiled "The Crying Game" for a friend once. I think my conventional delicatesse dissolves when confronted with fraud.

Don’t cry wolf, do advertise diamonds you actually sell, and don’t tell him you’re a girl if you’re really a guy.

...words to live by!

Their 49-facet "webcut" looks interesting. It might be an option for those looking for something similar to an Asscher.

 

[Superidealist]

The photo is still there two months later.

 

[fortheloveofdiamonds]

and don’t tell him you’re a girl if you’re really a guy.

Sound advice! Yikes!!
