I know that choosing an asscher is very subjective. Specifically, I like wide-cut corners, which this diamond has; however, I'm wondering whether typically from the top-down there is more of a deep "X" effect that runs all the way through than this one seems to exhibit, or if that is not the case with asschers with corners cut this wide and smaller tables. Again, I would appreciate any opinions on this!

It looks nice but its really hard to tell anything from the picture and video. The video is at a
bad angle and you cant really tell if it has leakage from the picture. It looks like it COULD be
A really nice stone but cant really tell. ASET?

Thanks, not sure if an ASET is available but I will ask.

Any other immediate reactions or advice on what to look for, other than leakage?

My guess is that it is leaky but having not seen many photos by Leon it is hard to say. The video is useless, too much tilt.
