I think the tint is clearly observable in the video. I had a 3.29-ct. in I color and you will see it, no question. An I color in that size is tinted and it is darker. Based on my experience, I would suggest you go down in size and up in color. If it is bothering you now and you don’t even have it set, trust me when I say it will make you crazy. You are spending a LOT of money and people are going to see a LOT of tint. Honestly, a smaller stone in a higher color grade will make more of a statement than a larger stone in a lower color.@gm89uk @OoohShiny
Thank you both for your responses.
I have seen pretty 3 carat I diamonds in person, which I felt was necessary, to know if I could live with the slight warmth that comes with an I. The original magnified video concerned me because it appears to have a brown tinge. I asked the vendor about this prior to purchase. He assured me it was fine. A beautiful stone. No tinge. I’ll repost that video to see what you think. It is very representative of the diamond color in person. Sorta “bronze” in color. I did not buy it from four mine, but it’s the only vendor that still has video. The others show “sold”.

I don’t live close to any of the vendors mentioned. I’m in the Dallas, TX area so I should be able to find a place to go and compare. I will clean the diamond, handle with tweezers, look at it again. Even if I can find the “shine” with a clean diamond, the color isn’t good for an I, compared to the others I have seen in person.
The 4 images I posted above would be an exchange with the current vendor, B2C. @OoohShiny, the new images are the diamond I’m considering, and it has the strong florescence. (The current stone does not have any florescence).
I would love to hear your thoughts about the color in the four mine video above. And any other comments. Thank you all!!
