Help with a diamond

[benrocky]

Hi guys,

I was wondering which of these you guys would pick or if you recommended something else I'm all ears. Compared some colours at B&M and don't think I want to go below a G colour.

1ct G VS2 - http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/11255/
1.02ct G VS2 http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/11147/

1.015ct G VS2 - http://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-2661539.htm

My budget was preferably about 8000 but willing to break the budget slightly to get these. I was planning on getting the vatche royal crown setting to go with this diamond.

Thanks

Ben

All 3 will look superb and I suspect a lay-person will not see any difference, so this comes down to splitting tiny hairs.
Comparing the 3 clarity plots I liked #1 the least though I doubt any of these 3 will have anything visible to the naked eye.
#3 has a crystal that is noticeable in WF's main pic over an arrow shaft, but again this is a highly magnified pic.

I plugged 2 and 3 into the HCA. https://www.pricescope.com/tools/hca
I pick 2 because it scored more Excellents than 3.

Again, all three of these are superb diamonds and you could just flip a coin.
But I'm like you, and we have the right to nit-pick a diamond purchase to death if that's the kind of person we are.
People vary.

You already have some very good options.

I would throw this one into the mix:
