Well after much research I have made the plunge. The dealer is a wholesaler in NYC who is a friend of a very trusted friend. I had to buy sight unseen which I was nervous about being that it''s an SI3, however I have 30 days full return and the option to upgrade at no cost in the future.
Here are the specs:
EGL USA Cert (NYC Lab)
Weight: 2.15CT
Shape: Round Brilliant
Measurements: 8.47-8.44x5.02mm
Depth: 59.4%
Table: 58%
Crown: 14%
Pavilion: 42.5%
Girdle: Thin to medium faceted
Culet: none
Polish: good
Symmetry: good
clarity: SI3
Color: I
Flourescence: Medium blue
Comments: none
Platinum 6 prong solitaire setting and I paid $7,900. Face up, the stone is gorgeous and inclusions are not visible. Obviously, you can see them when looking in the side or from the bottom. The cut is supposedly ideal and gets great scores using the HCA.
Did I overpay? I''d love some more expert opinions please. Thanks!
