Help in identifying if this is a good diamond?

[juken]

Hi Everyone,

New to diamond shopping for an engagement ring. Have been doing my own research and been using the HCA tool to exclude diamonds. I have found one that fits my criteria and has an HCA score below 2. However, looking at the enlarged picture I can see black crystals (very small) on the table which worries me. Would these black inclusions have a determintal effect on how the diamond sparkles or performs? Since it's VS1 I assume it will be eye clean.

The price also seems lower than some of the other diamonds with similar specs which worries me since I assume there is something bad about it hence the lower price. I also found out that the diamond is in India and hence GIA certified in India if that makes a difference.

I don't think those black inclusions would have any detrimental effect, in real life you would not be able to see them.

Now, it is a 60/60 diamond, which means it will have more brilliance (white light return) over fire (colored light return).

Overall it looks like it is a nice diamond. (*newbie opinion, take with a grain of salt)

The black dots (inclusions) will not have an effect on the stone.

I would not consider this a 60/60 stone. It looks to be a nice stone. Can you get an Idealscope or aset image?

I requested these reports, but looks like they are unable to provide them. Anything else you would suggest I check to ensure I am getting a good stone? Thanks!

I like this stone. I wouldn't consider it a 60/60 either (as @tyty333 said).

You definitely won't see the black dots IRL.

The girdle is thicker than I would want. Interesting proportions. You should definitely request more images. Arrows are a bit heavy and then not crisp at the edges so need to see if that was the photography or what. Definitely worth pursuing further info.

Does this look like too much light leakage on the table/edge? Was wondering how much this would affect the diamond. Thanks for all the input from everyone!

The image looks obscured - definitely seems to be leakage at that 1 area but everything seems wonky so unclear about the edges.
