Hi all, very new to diamonds but am only interested in ovals, and I know they can be tricky. Considering these, please see videos attached.
GIA grading, all have no fluorescence, no culet, excellent polish and symmetry:
1st for $68k is 3.3 ct E VVS1, 8 main pavilions off axis, depth 65.3%, table 55%, girdle very thick, L:W 1.38 (11.19x7.7x5.29)
2nd for $53k is 2.62 ct D IF, 6 main pavilions, depth 63.6%, table 58%, girdle slightly thick to thick, L:W 1.44 (10.83x7.51x4.77)
There’s also a third one for $68k that I’ve seen in person but forgot to take a video of, it’s a 2.61 F VVS1, 4 main pavilions, depth 62.5%, table 64%, girdle slightly thick, L:W 1.45 (11.16x7.7x4.81), hopefully will post video soon, and going to look w ASET scope at first two stones today.
I’m not super concerned about first stone hiding carat weight bc it’s offered price is similar to third stone, just concerned if the thicker girdle and depth makes it duller (though in person compared to second stone this didn’t appear so). Mainly looking to minimize bow tie, and it looks as if first stone has less bow tie than second but happy to hear thoughts! Also don’t know how to evaluate for fish eyes so if you guys see something..? Much appreciated!!
