These are the two stones I have narrowed it down to:

http://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut/0.80-carat-h-color-si2-clarity-sku-228697

and these are the IS images:

JA gemologist report says both are pretty equal in terms of performance and are eye clean. The 0.80 faces up bigger and so has that advantage but a GIA rating of only very good. The 0.75 is slightly smaller but GIA rating of excellent.

Any advice or thoughts would be very much appreciated. Oh and it is going in this setting if that makes a difference

That 80 pointer might be eye clean by JA's definition, but those cloud inclusions right under the table are likely visible to many.

The 75 pointer looks very nice.
 
.75 I VS2 looks decent enough. :love:
 
Hi

I agree with Bhavinj, 0.75ct I would choose 0.75ct
