First, this forum has been so helpful to me as a "lurker" that I decided to become a member
Second, I never thought I liked diamonds because the ones I''d seen always seemed grey and dull and didn''t sparkle like you''d expect a diamond to sparkle. That all changed when I saw the diamonds on this site and saw my first hearts and arrows diamond. Long story short, I''m now in the market for my first diamond (an anniversary present). I am a very active person so I''d like my diamond to be bezel set. That said, I know the bezel setting prevents a lot of light from entering the diamond, so I''d like some opinions on which of these two diamonds will give me maximum light return in a bezel setting. There''s some difference in price due to the better clarity/color of the second diamond. Thanks!
