Beautiful stone!

Three lovely diamonds, all with an excellent cut, if you want to get over a carat then the first one is the one to pick. If an upgrade ever might be a possibility in the future, then you might want to check out the policies for both vendors.

Lorelei - you are always so more eloquent than I am. Sometimes I forget that people are not reading my mind and just blurt out the basics.

I agree with Lorelei, my main decision for the 1st stone was the 1ct mark, and the fact that you are probably not going to notice the difference between a G and I in those really well cut stones. For a lot of people, hitting the 1ct magic mark is important.

It is good to have you here!

If it''s not a problem pricewise, I would go for the first one. There''s a good bit of difference in diameter between it and the .90. Beautiful stone!

Can I join this love-in?

I also like the first stone. I think the price is very good for that size and it will look bigger than any of the others. That said, the .90 ct is also a very good price in a hard-to-find size, so if $$ is a concern it may be the best options.

Consider the issue of upgrading, as Lorelei mentioned, as you may want that option in the future and I think GOG and JA differ in their policies.

Personally, I would go with number 2 because of the G color. Unless its an I that''s closer to H, I personally prefer the whiter stones and could probably tell it was an I. But like other people here have said, most people can''t tell in a well cut stone, so this really would be more of a "mind clean" situation for me. The difference in 0.81 to 1.06 is noticeable, but probably only when next to each other.
