No2:
0.903ct E SI1
. Report: AGS

The HCA score for the first one is 0.9, second one 1.1
And the sencond rock is $700 more expensive than the first one.

Any suggestion?

Thanks!!

Both have great potential by the numbers, and as they are AGS 0 for light performance, I would have high confidence buying either.

Personally, if I could swing the extra $$$, I would go for #2, if eye-clean. Larger in both weight and face-up size.

Welcome ttkt

Both look extremely promising, do you have any images for these if they are sold online or are they from a jewellery store? Is the SI1 eyeclean do you know?

 

[stone-cold11]

Looks promising from the numbers. Depends on your priority and if the SI1 is eye-clean.

Thanks for your reply.

Both of the stones come from whiteflash.

Both are excellent, it depends on your priorities, whether you prefer the pedigree of the ACA or would rather go with the other, I don't think you could go wrong with either.

ETA - I see the links have gone, I wanted to see the hearts image for the ACA, could you post it again please?

Thank you for all of your fast replies.

The 0.828 rock is here:

and here is the heart image:

The 0.903 rock is not H&A. And it is here:
http://www.whiteflash.com/round_ideal_cut/Round-Ideal-Cut-cut-diamond-2095753.htm#

I am wondering if the slightly larger rock is worth the extra 700.

 

[stone-cold11]

is 0.2mm increase in diameter worth $700 to you? That is something you have to decide.
