Diamond measurements

[jenniet0314]

Does anyone know what are the correct measurements for a 1.25- 1.30ct round brilliant?

 

[jet2ks]

Not totally sure of what you are looking for, but a well cut 1.25ct round should have a diameter around 7.0mm

I am looking for a round brilliant 1.25-1.30ct diamond. D or E in color, VS1, Excellent Polish & Symmetry, not too sure about the girdle size, and no fluoresce or culet

Numbers on both are promising. I prefer #1, esp. without images - c/p is safer, not quite as deep.

Ditto.

Do you you specifically want a D/E color and very high clarity? I only ask because sometimes people think this is the only way they can get a white and eye clean diamond, but it costs a lot and you can drop a little incolor and clarity and safely have a white eye clean diamond. If you prefer those specs, then go for it!

Definitely the first for me without images.
