Hello, thanks for this great site. I purchased a diamond prior to reading all the information on this site and wanted opinions on it. I went from knowing nothing about diamonds to learning about HCA''s, angles, and cut grading in only 2 weeks. My GF loves the diamond but I''m a little worried about the HCA score of 2.7. It looked good in the store but I wondered if there would be a much visual difference between it and a diamond with a HCA score in the 1-2 range.

The crown angle seems on the steep side and affecting the HCA score. I''m not really worried about the numbers or how it looks under a microscope as much as how it looks in real life.
Do you think that there would be much actual difference in how it looks in real life lighting versus if the crown angle was 34.5 or 35.0% which would bring the HCA down to below 2? What do you guys think of the price for this diamond as well? Thanks for your opinions.
