I am comparing two stones, these stone has exact same color, carat, clarity and cutting grade. GIA certified.

1. 3.02 carat Fcolor Si1 No Fluorescence
56 table
33 crown angle
14% crown
40.8 pavilion angle
43% pavilion
60.7 depth
med - slightly thick
9.34*9.37*5.68
one big inclusion on the table(crystal, feather and clouds), eye clean but more visible than the other

2. 3.02 carat Fcolor Si1 No Fluorescence
57 table
34 crown angle
15% crwon
41.2 pavilion angle
44% pavilion
62.1 Depth
medium
9.25* 9.29* 5.75
spreaded inclusion, mostly white clouds on the table, less visible than the other

Which one is better? Do you think number 2 stone is too stiff? Even the inclusion is more visible, still number 1 is better diamond??? Once I see the both at the same time, number 1 stone looks bigger than the other. The price of number 2 is a little cheaper but not noticeble.

Please advise me. it is really stressful process!!! Help me , please!!!
Thank you.
 
There is no way we can tell you just from those numbers. Neither has what I consider the "best" numbers, but both stones are probably okay. I would be wary about SI1 in a 3 ct stone and be 100% sure you have seen them outside the jewelry store lighting to see if inclusions are visible from the top or sides. If you have magnified images of the stones it would help. I personally would not buy a 3 ct diamond without an idealscope or ASET image to show if there is leakage.
