[...] the ideal 34/crown and 40.5/pavillion angles, and are deeper than the 60% total depth, that you need to have the lowest HCA score. These mythical ideal HCA dimensions don't seem to exist in real life diamond inventories.
The difference of HCA is not substantial (both over HCA=2, end of story), IMO. And no, #2 is not a better buy ''cause of the HCA.Date: 10/31/2004 3:29:19 PM

Would the excellent HCA score of diamond #2 make it a better buy?
