Looking for suggestions

[gwee]

Hello
I am looking for a round, ideal cut diamond. I want to find a happy medium between value and quality when it comes to color and clarity. Im thinking G/H color and SI1 or SI2. I want to keep it $6000 or under.
I wanted this stone but it wasnt eye clean.

Need to ask if the good symmetry has any negative effects visible to the naked eye: http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/F-SI2-Very-Good-Cut-Round-Diamond-1489886.asp

Needs to be checked for negative effects due to fluorescence: http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/H-SI1-Very-Good-Cut-Round-Diamond-1500981.asp

This might be closer to an SI2... ask if eye-clean. http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/G-SI1-Excellent-Cut-Round-Diamond-1537251.asp

Thanks Julie. Is it just the photography that makes those inclusions so noticable? Probably a stupid question

mostly it is the magnification. much smaller in real life.
