Does this D GIA graded HPHT lab diamond have a blue nuance?

[Anttarus]

I'm looking to purchase a lab grown diamond. The clerk from the jewellery store said that he could order the diamond from the video from a factory based in India.

I've uploaded a video of the diamond to the following youtube URL as I could not get decent screenshots from the video the clerk provided:

It is GIA graded, the certificate number is: 2406792103. Even though GIA did not mention it having a blue nuance and even though it being graded as a D, I can still see somehow some blue nuances, especially when the person in the video turns it upside down. (am I imagining things? could it be just the indoor light setup?)

It has a HCA score of 1.6 and I'm happy with the size, but I'm worried that it might have a blue nuance.

Should I go for it?

I think it's a reflection of the lighting. I don't think a GIA-graded D color diamond would have blue nuance. If there's a good return policy, I'd go ahead and buy it.

Yes, I was thinking (and hoping) that it might be reflecting light. Unfortunately a return policy is pretty much out of discussion, as I'm buying it from Dubai, 1 day before having to leave to my home country (might be able to return it in the same day, but that'd be pretty much it).

Can you ask them to provide a couple more videos in different lighting, such as diffuse outdoors?

Right, good idea. Will contact the clerk first thing in the morning and ask for it!

See if they can put it face-down (pavilion pointing up) in one of those white plastic color grading trays...you'll be able to determine real quick if its got blue nuance.

As an update:

The seller could not provide more videos or pictures of the diamond, but I got the chance to see it in person. It had a blue nuance and I did not end up buying it anymore.

Thank you everyone!
