Princess Options

[ab1234]

New to the forum and would appreciate your view (the experts!) on the following princess stones. If you were going to buy one or the other today, which would it be? Are there better value to be had otherwise? What are the pitfalls that I am not seeing in these stones?

Finally, what size princess side stones would be appropriate for a center stone of ~2ct?

Many Thanks In Advance!
