Hi all,

I am a novice! I am looking at two MMD's for my e.ring. I've done a little bit of research. So far, I am down to two MMD's. Both are 0.9 carats and both score 2.2 on the HCA scale...

The first diamond is a little cheaper:
Colour: E
Cut: Excellent
Clarity: SI1

Depth: 56.5
Table: 57
Crown 13.5
Pavillion 43
FactorGrade
Light Return:Very Good
Fire:Very Good
Scintillation:Very Good
Spread:Excellent



The second diamond is £300.00 more:
Hearts and arrows
Colour G
Cut: Ideal
Clarity: VVS2

Depth: 58.5
Table: 55.5
Crown 15.5
Pavillion 43
FactorGrade
Light Return:Very Good
Fire:Very Good
Scintillation:Very Good
Spread:Excellent


Do I go for the diamond with the excellent cut or Hearts and arrows?

Thank you so much in advance!!

 
Can you double check the stats on these? If they are MRBs they are both exceptionally shallow cut and I would personally rule them out on that alone.
There are some decent 60/60 diamonds out there (60 depth with 60 table) but those need to be evaluated on an individual basis, and are a different “flavor” of diamond than the traditional TIC cut most people lean towards.
 
Ohh!! I think I miscalculated as I added the crown and pavilion together. That means my HCA score is also wrong. I tried to do the score again but it says the girdle is overly thick. I'm not sure if I have done it incorrectly. I've managed to take a screenshot of the diamond stats, maybe it will be clearer. Screenshot 2021-01-16 at 18.45.10.png



Thanks again

On paper, I much prefer the angles of G. Do you have any pics/videos?
