Dear Forumites,

All of these images are for triple-Ex RB I/SI1 diamonds between 2-2.3 ctw. Their tables range from 55 to 58 %, Depth from 61.3-62.1%. CROWN ∠: 34 to 35.5 deg and Pavilian ∠: 40.6-41.0 deg. These have < 1.7 HCA score and get either 1A or 1B on AGA/NAJA rating. Can you rank these based on the images? Which ones would you your top pick and which ones would you discard?

I would rank them as all good (acceptable).
 
Thanks! I appreciate your comment.
Anyone else?
 
They all look fine. With no other info than just the picture, I am drawn more often to a or c.
 
Based on the ideal scopes and proportion ranges cited, I would say there is more likely to be significant differences in performance from a clarity standpoint than a cutting standpoint as the Si1 grade is pretty broad. If you are able to inspect them yourself that is good. If you are buying remotely it would be worthwhile to post details about the clarity grade of each (stone plot and comments), to get more feedback here.
