Thoughts on this diamond?

[Spesh2011]

I am working with Mark at ERD and he sent me this diamond as a potential center stone for my ring. What do you think? While it's an I, he said there is no yellow in the stone at all. He also said it is an SI1 that is very close to being a VS2.

What do you think?

1.70 carat
I Color
SI1
Excellent Cut
Excellent Polish
Excellent Symmetry
No fluorescence

I can't read the report. Can you post a close up of the proportion image? Or the values?

I am new at not only posting, but posting with attachments! Let's see if this works:

It's a goodie by the numbers. I would guess a pretty bright stone based on the combination of the proportions.

From the report and pic it looks good to me! I don't think Mark would steer you wrong

He has been so awesome to work with so far. Based on his reputation, I have full trust in him, but considering how much I lurk on this site, I knew that I was going to have to do a post for opinions on whatever he chose for me.

Thank you for your opinions!!!!!!!!!

How about opinions on this cushion?

I'm still trying to decide between a rb solitare and a cushion w/ halo. Love them both.

Ahh, decisions decisions!

That cushion looks awesome. This video might help, it compares cushions and rounds
