What do you think of these 0.9ct diamonds

[w3ss]

So I was on a search 1 month ago for a 0.9 diamond. I almost settled for a 0.8 at WF but decided to wait for WF to get more ACA diamonds in stock.

Hi w3ss,

We need the crown and pavilion angles please in order to help you further, so post those when you can and we can go from there.

Thanks! In both cases we need Idealscope images but from what we have I prefer the 34/ 40.6 combo

Thanks Lorelei...If the diamonds are not in-house, I can still request an Idealscope?

If they were side by side #3 will be visibly larger than the other two. It looks like a nice stone and the one I'd pick, especially if it costs a lot less than a branded stone with same color and clarity. E-VS2 is a great (and safe) color/clarity combo as well.

Yes you can request an IS if the diamonds aren''t in house.
