Another "What diamond?" Help Me Please Thread

[mjtsoccer]

Hey,

After reading quite a bit on this site, I find I still need a little bit of help...
I'm trying to obviously balance size with cut/color/clarity (duh... who isn't)... and my price range is <5k (for diamond only)

Also, my current favorite setting is:
3 Stone "Swan" Diamond Engagement Ring by Vatche, which has two side stones (0.50ctw, F/G, VS, Ideal)

Any help or suggestions concerning the 4 diamonds I picked below (or if I clearly don't know what I'm doing, I'm okay hearing that too...) would be greatly appreciated.

They all seem pretty nice (WF Expert Selection). Perhaps call them and ask? If I recall, they're are eye clean but you may want to double check and ask.

I would pick the ACA G SI1, if its eye clean. If it is not eye clean, then I would choose the ES I VS2. I chose these two over the other two because they have better IS images. I would choose the G SI1, if its eye clean that is, because its cheaper than the ES I VS2
