Help Choosing a Diamond

[sparkle_more]

Hello Everyone!

I am in search of an oval diamond.

I have seen two at my local jeweler's recently but I'm not sure if I am happy with either. I really don't know what I'm looking for because I have seen so many that I am really starting to get confused about what I'm looking for/at. Both of the ones below are eye clean to me. Neither has a significant bowtie. If I had to choose between the two, I think I'd pick the first based on looks even though it is slightly more than I wanted to spend.

Here are the GIA reports (I know you can't tell much from them, but it's what I have right now):

$4286


$3944


Thanks!

Great ovals are sooo hard to find! For fancy shapes such as ovals, I always recommend Jonathan at Good Old Gold because he will call in some within your budget, check them for light performance and even make you a video! I recently bought an asscher there and here is the video they made for me just to show you:
