Help! I've narrowed it down to two diamonds :)

[ChrisB703]

Hello

First and foremost, thank you to everyone that has supplied such valuable insight and advice! I am happy to report I've narrowed it down to two diamonds (I think! haha). Both diamonds are .9 D Si1 GIAXXX and seem to score well on the HCA scale.

I like the spread of Diamond 2, but not sure it's as good as a performer as Diamond 1, bc Diamond 2's depth and table are outside of the desired specs.

Please let me know what you think! Any and all opinions, comments, and advice are appreciated.

Diamond 1
https://www.gia.edu/report-check?reportno=6252905324
6.17 - 6.21 x 3.82 mm
Depth - 61.7 %
Table - 56 %
Crown Angle - 34.5°
Pavilion Angle - 40.8°

Are you just going by numbers, or have you seen pics/idealscope images?

Thanks for the reply...waiting on pics and imagery. I'm just curious what everyone thought based off of numbers/specs/HCA.

Will Diamond 2 took bigger bc it's 6.31 - 6.34 X 3.75mms versus 6.17 - 6.21 x 3.82 mm? If so, is it noticeable? I'm not sure it's as good as a performer as Diamond 1, bc Diamond 2's depth and table are outside of the desired specs.

Here's a picture of Diamond #2 - https://www.gia.edu/report-check?reportno=2264165423


I have a video as well, but not sure how to post it. It came through google/gmail and it's a .html file

Based the numbers and photo, I would take the 59/34/40.6

These score well on HCA so will be a preference more than anything. Under 1 score I read somewhere was better for earrings and pendants.

Diamond 1 will look smaller but have larger , more larger sparkles.
Diamond 2 will look bigger but will have a larger table reflection and smaller, more splintery sparkles.

With SI1's you really need to see if the diamond is eye clean so videos and images will help that. Otherwise these are not bad options at all!
