While Blue Nile can't get ASET images of the stones I'm interested in for my potential stud upgrade, they have offered to send them to GCAL and get a report on them.
My question: How meaningful is the light performance diagram on the GCAL report? The key question: Is it as good as an ASET image? Not sure whether to bother with this or not. I have no idea about light diagrams and what they mean.
Here's a link to a random diamond and its GCAL report. How much can we tell from this? It doesn't seem as good as an ASET, but I wouldn't know. If it's not going to tell me a whole lot, I won't bother asking BN to do it.
