Couldnt decide between two diamonds so I bought both with the intent of keeping the one I like better. From a naked eye, both diamonds look very similar in terms of light reflection. Diamond 1 has a slighter edge in terms of Fire. Diamond 2 looks noticeable larger than 1. Need your help analyzing the idealscope image for both. Please keep in mind that both diamonds are mounted.

Hi, very hard when mounted, I would say they are in your hands and your eyes will tell you which you like the best. The reason for more fire on the first is the smaller table with the 60.9 depth and yes the second should be noticeable larger because of not only carat size but shallower 59/60. The Idealscopes seem ok from what you posted, but I would go with what looks good to you. Look at them in all types of lighting to get a good idea.
 
Both look OK. One has larger pavilion mains while the other has smaller mains. It will affect the kind of scintillation and pattern you are looking for.
 
I like the first
