Is .38 ML a big difference?

[Confused22]

Hello boards. I am looking at 2 princess diamonds of the same clarity, carat, and color. One is .38 ML smaller (total) and $600 cheaper. Is this size difference big to the baked eye?


1st diamond is 6.0 x5.79
2nd diamond is 6.16x6.01

I mean naked eye LOL

Side by side, one would appear larger. Standing alone,.....???? I would think probably not. JMHO.

Hi,

Although it is a noticeable difference, it is not a big difference to the naked eye.

From my experience, most customers would opt for the smaller/cheaper diamond in a comparable size vs price scenario.

As would I.

LOL...not if you ARE baked, and you weigh it by dropping it in water to measure it in ML...!

hee hee...

Good grief... I had no idea that little joke will go that far. Hope no harm was done. The answer is among all these, as far as I can see.

I wish there was more data on the two stones to talk about ...

oh my Gosh I am such an idiot LOL. Hence the name confused. I meant MM, not ML LMAO. I drink a lot of water, maybe that was on my mind??? LOL

They are two princess cut diamonds, stand alone. I am trying to decide. Size is important to me but I am not sure if $300 is worth an extra .38 MM.

Size... size. I don't think a third of a millimeter is worth paying for: who would see that ? What is the weight and depth and table size of these. With 20% depth variances in depth acceptable for princess cuts, that makes a difference in size.
