Can't choose between these 2 diamonds - HELP :)

[rockstar12]

These diamonds are pretty close to the same specs (even the prices are only $500 difference) - Yet I can't decide which diamond will look better. Note: I will not see this diamond in person. Also, it will be set in platinum.

The H/VS1 stone has a 1.7HCA
The G/VS2 stone has a 4.6HCA
I'm not sure if I should let HCA be the difference maker, or if I should go with the better color stone.


1.78ct H-VS1


1.78ct G-VS2

This is one of the cases where the HCA clearly identifies the better stone. Go with the H if these are your only two choices. I wouldn't consider the G because the cut is not as good.

Thank you for your help!
Does it make sense that a better cut H will look more colorless than a lesser cut G? (even if they are both considered "excellent" cut in the specs)
