Need Diamond Advice - Welcome all comments

[adameverleigh]

I''m a guy buying his first diamond...this is by far the largest purchase of my life so far. Please let me know what you think about the diamond I''ve picked out so far. Thank you!

The Sarin results are:

Total Depth: 4.52mm 60.7%
Table Size: 4.17mm 55.9%
Crown Angle: 34.8 (34.5 - 34.9)
Crown Height: 1.14mm 15.3%
Pavillon Angle: 40.8 (40.6 - 41.0)
Pavillion Depth: 3.20mm 43%
Cutlet size: 0.04mm 0.5
Girdle - thin to medium

The ideal scope image is attached, it looks great to my untrained eye. The website the diamond is on is here: http://www.whiteflash.com/diamonds/diamond_details.aspx?idno=560203#

I welcome all comments and help.

This looks like a beautiful stone. It scores Excellent on the Holloway Cut Adviser (under Resources)! Great choice!

Welcome!

You cannot go wrong with an ACA, you did a great job and that is a topping diamond!

Thank you for the compliments; I hope it looks as well in person as it does online. Just nervous about spending so much money. Anyone else have comments on the cut/color?

Thanks again everyone.

Thanks again everyone.

Cut on an ACA will be magnificent, don't you worry! Colour's a personal thing that's different for everyone, but I think an I with such a great cut is going to look just stunning! And size--you picked my PERFECT size!! You really did a great job, can't wait to see the finished product! What setting are you going to put it in?

Ditto!


And ditto to Gwen too. With such a great cut, I think you''ll most likely just see dazzling brilliance and fire.

It''s a great stone, congrats!

Thanks everyone, you sure have helped to assuage my concerns. It felt right and felt like a good quality stone. When it arrives, I feel more confident it will look great. I will definitely send some photos; am not exactly sure on the setting. Might try to "design" my own off some Tacori settings...?
