Time to Decide - Which one?

[Doomaise]

Well, I asked everyone for comments regarding now or wait, and it was a resounding "buy now" so only one thing left to do.....buy a diamond.

Here are my options......which one should I go for/do you think is best?

Thanks to everyone for being such a HUGE help and such great diamond educators. This has been a wonderful experience. Finding this website has been like winning the lottery....

Thats a lot of choices, I think it is hard for us to pick from almost identical stones like that. Color is your preference, and as long as they are eye-clean, which you need to ask the vendor, then all is good. Why don''t you call WF and ask them to tell you which one is the most beautiful? They are honest about that stuff.

Narrow it down to 2 or 3 and you'll get more opinions.

That''s better.

Ok, IF eyeclean, I would go with the H. It''s biggest, and size is important to most women. In a great cut like this, it will still face up very white, and should knock her socks off.

If it is not eyeclean, then I''d go with the 1.06, assuming it''s eyeclean.

Have WF carefully eyeball them for you.

For me, there's no question: the third option of H 1.13ct assuming it's eye-clean, and it looks like it is from the photo. Unless you have a mental preference for a higher color, or your GF has expressed a preference, then bigger is waaaay better in this case. You won't see a hint of color in that stone, I have a WF J and can't see a hint of color, so that's my vote.

If the H scares you, which is shouldn't, then go for the G. It will look slightly smaller (apparently .2mm is noticable) if compared side-by-side with the other, but since you won't ever do that in real life

then it shouldn't matter too much.

Unless your GF is a diamond addicionado, she won't see any color in an ideal cut G or even an H. She, you, and all your friends will only see BIG and SPARKLY!
