Been lurking here for a few months while I've educated myself. Now I finally need to pull the trigger on the stone for her ER.

I'm looking for a center stone approximately 4 ct. D-F color, VVS/eye clean, H&A. Cut is obviously the priority. I've looked at a ton of stones from Brian Gavin and Whiteflash but not loving the premium price tag. Also looked at most of the other online vendors as well. I would like to stay under $8500, but there's some wiggle room. I appreciate the info in GCAL 8x analysis, so have been vetting stones that way. Ideally, the winner should be 3.75 - 4.25 ct.

Here's a contender:

0.7 HCA score.

Thoughts?

Just FYI, the HCA score is to help you eliminate a diamond. It is not what I would base my choice on. I'm liking the one you picked and the 4.09 from Kim's choices. Looks like you did your homework!!

That’s a juicy 15.5 crown height in the 4.31!
