I have already picked an engagement ring, now to pick the best looking diamond to propose with! I have done lots of research and I've decided I want to go with WF for the princess. Please help me narrow down my search/help me pick which stone would be the best out of these options? I'm not an expert with diamonds so any help is appreciated.

I like defined lines, which I was recommended the 2 chevron. G/F or better colour, VS2/VS1 or better clarity. Definitely want it to sparkle really well. Other than that, I'm not sure what to look for.

Just realized that. But the ring I want cannot be found there. And I actually got a good deal on my ring. I think if I got it from the states I would have to pay duties and taxes which will end up being more expensive. Ring makes more sense to get it locally but diamond from WF seems the best right now.
 
Can't hurt to ask WF for a price quote, even if it is not listed, they should be able to order the whole catalog.
 
I like the look of No 2 the best but that is personal preference.

They are all ideal cut so you can't go far wrong I would say.

No 1 looks very straight line square in looks.

The Whiteflash reps will give you their opinion if you ask and they can also get a gemologist to look at
them for you and recommend one if you want.

Actually realized that #2 wont work because I need a min of 4.80mm l/w measurements to fit on the ring.
 
Well that is one deleted from your list then.

On the local stone is that the chip marked at the bottom right hand corner on the top view picture. It may cause more
damage if it is on the corner as I believe there is more chance of breakage there. The stone is a VS2 clarity though so not
sure if chip would be large enought to hurt. One of the pros here may be able to advise.

I actually didn't notice that little chip. Thanks for pointing that out. I was recommended this one from White Flash:

I like #3 most, and #1 next. I am no expert in judging Prncess cut. The other diamonds do not have as much reds in ASET. I base my judgement on the amount of reds (lots of reds and if not possible, some greens) and the brightness appearance of the diamond image (including square shape). #3 is square in shape, and it is icy white F color. Vs2 clarity is good enough for me.
 
#3 (your recommended stone) has a natural and feather in the upper right corner of the pavilion. It's VS2 clarity and thus shouldn't affect anything, but since you eliminated the local stone for a chip (also VS2), it's worth noting.

I wonder why chips are marked as red, indicating that they're inclusions, rather than being marked as green as an external blemish.
 
I actually don't think the local Stone's chip is external. I think it's internal but the blemish is called chip. Not sure how this would affect the diamond or not. If it will I would like to stay away. Hoping the PS experts could give a hand if it is okay or not
 
Should I stay away from the local dealer's diamond with the internal blemish in the bottom corner of the AGS cert? Or will it be okay? Would really appreciate experienced expert advice. Thanks
