Comparing these 2 here, 1st one has a good looking ideal scope image, 2nd seems to have a better ASET image. Thoughts?

ASET are preferred for fancy shapes as you can get a better idea of the light return and its components rather than IS. Are you unsure which shape to choose out of Princess or cushion? Both have quite different looks, has your SO expressed a preference between these shapes?

So you're saying it's not as important if I'm looking at a Princess cut?

And yes, she's expressed interest in some type of a square shaped diamond, and I've been mainly looking at cushion and princess cuts.

Yikes I guess it sure does (the GIA report definitely shows a feather running in that same location). I wonder if this would be eye clean or not =/
