gemex vs. idealscope

[targa]

i have 2 stones that i am considering-

by specs they both look pretty great to me- hoping that some of you might have a preference one way or another- my goal is maximizing brilliance and scintillation (less concerned about fire and "true" H&A pattern). I haven''t seen either yet, but told both are eye clean.

I have become pretty familiar with idealscope images, but gemex is new to me- would appreciate any help or suggestions. thanks

which would you pick?

cut wise I think they are pretty close.
What does the pricing look like?

 

[targa]

they are close, but the gemex stone is cheaper.
in the balance is g vs. h color and the fact that the 1.58 stones'' inclusions are very central.

does the gemex id photo id funtion at all in discriminating the degree of H&A patterning?

 

[strmrdr]

both have good arrows would need a heart image to tell what the hearts look like.

both angle combos work, I slightly prefere the angles of the first but its very close.


Id go with the second in this case I think.
More info, better cert, better color, less money and not enough size difference in mm to matter one way or the other.
