Narrowed down to 2 WF diamonds - help me pick

[skypie]

One is slightly larger, but lower color grade. Both are eye clean though the larger stone is VS2 instead of SI1. $1400 price difference...

1.614 H SI1, $13,995

The larger one. I have a 1.84 I VS2 and love it. Completely eye clean and can’t see any color without crazy manipulation

I would also pick the 1.7 based off the video

I'm not color sensitive...I would go with the "I".

I'm a size wh***, so I'd go with the bigger one. I LOVE My "I" colored VS2 ACA!

Believe it or not the WF rep told me she preferred the smaller stone. Apparently the larger stone, despite being eye clean VS2 has some darker inclusions that can be noticed at closer range whereas the smaller stone's inclusions can't really be seen.

Ask for a side by side comparison photo

Proportion wise I'd prefer #1 b/c of the higher crown.
