Help picking the "right" princess cut

[jrocksinc]

im really leaning towards the WF.. does anyone know if you can negotiate with them?? Still going to look on a few more sites and see if I can find anything else

WF has a PS discount and a discount for paying by wire.

suggestions?

or these?

I can also post ASET images..

ASETs are always more helpful for fancy cuts. Based on my personal taste, I don't like the top left or the two left ones on the 2nd row, and I would lean towards one of the two on the right.

 

[slg47]

yes can you post ASETs and stats/prices?

so to make a long story short the web site quoted me at the wrong price for the above mentioned diamonds. I am going to keep searching but have narrowed it down to 2.. I want to purchase within the next few weeks. Thanks

Next i need to decide on a setting... decisions never end!!

I've said it before but I'd go for the GOG and save the $1000. Although both will be truly beautiful. Which stone do your eyes prefer?

What are you setting choices?

 

[jrocksinc]

Either solitare or side diamonds. Looking to spend 1500 max on setting

I still like the WF stone. I like the ASET a touch better, but mostly you get an extra 0.15 mm in both directions and hit the carat mark for $600.

Just for clarification ... the 1.12ct F VS2 does have lifetime policies and what's on the web is a typo.

thoughts on this stone compared to the other 2?? Its much larger, color is better and clarity is even a little better.. how are the optics you think? Should I stick with the others or would this be good? I want fire, and sparkle.. will this be able to give it

One thing to consider is that diamond isn't square.

will the .3mm difference be noticeable in a setting? or very noticeable do u think

I think it will be just enough to be noticeable. My princess is 5.38x5.5, and I can just barely notice a difference when I really try hard. Anything bigger than that L/W ratio will probably be seen.
