opinions, pretty please

[ebonykawai]

I''m not very educated on AGS; much more used to GIA. Can I get some opinions on this diamond, please?

the rock

Many thanks in advance!

 

[JulieN]

excellent choice

 

[Ellen]

Ditto!

 

[ebonykawai]

Thank you! Can you also tell me, is AGS just as well-known and valid as GIA? I''m not very familiar with it. Thanks for the help!

 

[Ellen]

They aren''t quite as well known as GIA, but extremely reputable/valid, no problems! And you really picked a great one!

 

[ebonykawai]

GREAT!! Thank you!!!

AGS is definitely just as reputable as GIA, some would say more so. Also, not sure how tight your budget is, but if you want to go a bit larger, I''d take a look at these two:

SIs can be totally eyeclean, and often are, and they can really allow you to get a larger diamond for the money!

Thanks so much for all the help! I''m going with the champaign setting for sure, in platinum. Have to sleep on the diamonds, lol.

 

[Ellen]

That ring''s going to be a stunner, I love that setting!

I just bought two almost identical diamonds from that same group....75 H VS2''s and they are gorgeous! I think you have made a great choice! If you want to see a couple of real life pictures, go here:

Wow, diamondseeker, they are fabulous!!!!

Still sitting here, deciding. Over coffee. That''ll help, right???

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Oh, and AGS and GIA are the two most reliable and respected major labs. AGS is smaller, but they have high standards and grade light performance which is why WF sends their best stones there.

So...after much debating and gnashing of teeth, here's what I got:

IT!!!!

And the pt champaigne setting. OMG, SO NERVOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
