Fluorescence: Faint
HCA: 0.9

2. https://myapps.gia.edu/ReportCheckPortal/getReportData.do?&reportno=1142495735&weight=1.08

Shape: RB

Which would you buy and any advice on why? Thank you so much. I'm a guy and totally new to this diamond thing!!
 
I'd get the better cut one- #1 as if will outshine the other in terms of sparkle and brillance
 
#1 would be worth looking at. The HCA is meant as a weeding tool and anything with score over 2 should be discarded. However, you can't use the HCA as the "be-all-end-all" tool for selecting a stone. It is one piece of the puzzle. Can you get an idealscope image for the first stone?

Agreed. Images would be helpful
 
Based on numbers alone, I would definitely go with #1.
