Hello all,
A question from a newbie here. I am looking for a diamond and am considering these three diamonds. I was hoping that I could get some advice from you nice people on which to get.

#1 is a near 60/60 stone - https://www.pricescope.com/wiki/diamonds/60-60-proportioned-diamond
It will likely have less colored light return than others with more traditionally cut rb proportions. Plus you said it's NOT eye clean - forget about this one.

#2 I like if it's eye clean as you said - I like the crown angle, and the fluor.

#3 Also potentially very nice.

Can you get idealscope images for them?

I agree ecf
 
Thanks for the advice! So it sounds like i should lean towards the second or the third. I am not sure if i can get idealscope images on them. I think the crown angle on the second one is a little better and i have read that twinning wisps can be a better inclusion to have and on this one it is the only inclusion listed but the third one is a vs2 and has a slightly better table percentage. I do notice that a inclusion on the vs2 is reflected a few times within. Both the second and third have same star facet lengths of 50, same girdle thickness (med-slightly thick), diameters within .02 of each other, almost the same hca, and no culets. The second one has lower girdles of 75%, the third has 80%. The second has a pavilion depth of 42.5%, third has 43%.
