Hi All!
My first time posting in PS, although I've been reading lots of informative posts here for a few weeks now, since my bf and I have been educating ourselves on round brilliant diamonds as we looked for an e-ring. We found this beauty on James Allen:

and my honey purchased it recently, set in this setting:
http://www.jamesallen.com/engagement-rings/solitaire/platinum-six-prong-knife-edged-solitaire-engagement-ring-handmade-item-2426
JA has been a breeze to work with and my bf is VERY happy with the ring (I haven't seen it yet....I want to be surprised seeing it in person for the first time when he proposes ), but with any big purchase, you tend to second-guess your buying choice, so can anyone please reassure him that this diamond is stunning, brilliant, sparkly, icy, and gorgeous!? We're still within the return time-frame, so please don't hold back if you see something not quite right with it however.
He keeps going back to this one: Very similar, just bigger....no cloud but other small inclusions. My ring finger size is a 5 1/4, so the 1 carat looks really fine for my long, slender finger shape, but either one would look nice I think.

Of the two, what do you think? It was very hard choosing because they're both really gorgeous. I think the HCA tool score is what made him second guess: the 1 carat scored a 0.9 and the 1.3 carat scored a 0.7....that's all he needed to see...haha!!
Thanks guys!
Susan
