Thanks elle and lorelei!

Do you have any comments for the 2 diamonds i just link? Do their scans look alright to you?

Either WF stone is going to be a winner. I'd base it on whichever has less visible inclusions.

This one is totally eye-clean. The feather is internal. Almost impossible to see from the table. about 0.3mm smaller than the other stone. HCA score is 1.2. The Idealscope pic looks pretty good

This one is also eye-clean. 10x loupe will be able to find the inclusion. Even though its an I, it''ll probably look just as white as the smaller one. HCA score is 1.1. Idealscope pic looks good too.

The price difference is about $460...

I agree with SC. As both are eyeclean to your standards, I''d take the larger size and lower color the ACA.

It depends on what you want, both are great diamonds. The JA is of higher colour, well cut and a non branded diamond which is said to be h&a. JA''s upgrade policy differs somewhat to that of WF so if this is ever a consideration then it would pay to read the terms and conditions of each.

The WF diamond has the ACA pedigree and a lower colour. So it depends on your preferences and budget.
