I'm hoping someone who can read these numbers help me pick some of these stones from WF. I'm looking for .8-.9 cttw for a pair of earring studs, for the max of sparkle!

Is ACA the way to go? Is color or clarity less important?

I have the following picked and if you guys can help me with your opinion on the best bet, I would appreciated.

http://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-2763594.htm This one is ACA
0.412 ct G VS2
Depth 61.8
Table % 56.1
Crown Angle 34.9
Star 52.0
Pavilion Angle 40.9
Crown % 15.3
Lower Girdle % 77.0
Measurements 4.77x4.79x2.96
Culet Pointed
Fluorescence Negligible
Girdle Thin to Medium Faceted

http://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-2430945.htm Love this one but felt like its a bit $$$ to be G color, VS2 and then ACA

Any other suggestions?

These are the two that I have on hold.

Ooops...looks like you already bought these? I was just looking them up for you.
 
Re: Expert advice needed urgently- would like to purchase to

No I haven't!! They are on reserved!!
I'm very torn between the expert select and the aca grade!!!
 
Re: Expert advice needed urgently- would like to purchase to

That is a tough call as both are very nice. I will say that the non-ACA diamond looks to have a bit more leakage. As a rookie, if you held them side by side I personally wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Where are you budget-wise?

I just noticed that the link doesn't work. The BGD Ones are ,.45 each, one is G/SI1 and the other is H vs1, both Brian signature category.
Hopefully these links work

Re: Expert advice needed urgently- would like to purchase to

Those both look very nice - are they reserved for you?
 
Re: Expert advice needed urgently- would like to purchase to

Yep!!! Do I have to worry about leakage of light?
 
Re: Expert advice needed urgently- would like to purchase to

I'll take a quick look. I would not combine two different colors, first of all. I know people do, but I just wouldn't. If you ever decided to sell them, it would make them harder to sell, for example.

Looks like going up to G color is necessary to get a matched pair in the same color:
