I''ve been looking for an engagement diamond for about 2 weeks now. At first I thought color made the most difference to me, but now I''m realizing cut does.
If I put the emphasis on cut, and get a low color and clarity J/SI2 is it going to make the cut look really bad?
Inclusions seem to be barely noticable in most diamonds and to me color is nearly impossible to judge unless you have two drastically different colored diamonds next to each other.
Here are two that caught my eye and seem like a great deal.
Also is there a bias against BN on here? As I see most people point to whiteflash and good old good more.

Also, a friend put me in contact with Millman Diamonds in NY on 47th st. Has anyone had experience with them.
Am I headed in the wrong direction with my choices?
Advice?
Suggestions?
Thanks
