Need experts help choosing between two diamonds.

Diamond 1. http://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut/0.90-carat-d-color-si2-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-297407

.90 D SI2 GIA EX EX EX Medium Blue Fluorescence??

.9 score on HCA cut advisor. and a 1A score on the AGA/NAJA cut class. and is a True Hearts James Allen



Diamond 2. http://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-3063773.htm

.89 H SI1 AGS 000

1.4 score on the HCA cut advisor. and a 1A score on the AGA/NAJA cut class. and is A CUT ABOVE whiteflash diamond

Both are round diamonds. I like both, but I am a little worried about diamond 1 being a SI2. Not sure if it would be eye clean. Would the D color make this diamond tempting to get over diamond 2 even with the fact its SI2? And do you need to worry about medium blue fluorescence?

Whats generally better True Hearts or A Cut Above?

Thank you guys.

The JA D/SI2 doesn't look like it will be eye-clean... the WF stone is listed as eye-clean. Your color options are very far apart (D & H)... if you could tell us your budget, we may be able to find some more options.

Would you be open to antique stones? This one is J, but the cut makes it look much whiter -- this is a great stone for the price!

This stone is $50 over budget, but I thought I'd post anyway...

The D doesnt look clean to me. Did you ask?

I would go for the ACA.
