Hi PS Community,
I've been searching for an oval diamond for the past month now, that I intend to set east-west for an anniversary ring.
So far, I've looked at many ovals; Mindful of bowties and poor dimensions.
After much looking, I "think" I've found a diamond - but would love your opinions. This diamond under extreme spotlighting has some dark areas, and under indoor lighting, it sparkles. I like the width of it - but the darker facets under certain lighting is bothering me.

Specs:
carat = 1.51
color = F
measurements = 8.86 x 6.66 x 4.14mm
clarity = SI1
GIA certified
Excellent polish/very good symmetry
flour = none

Really hard to tell anything from your pictures. Are you able to see it in person?

Hi - Yes, saw it in person and although the dimensions were great, under spotlighting the stone had more dark spots. Is this expected with ovals?

I've also attached the ASET report. Let me know what you think. screen_shot_2015-11-02_at_9.png
