I have been lurking on this site for months and months and trying to absorb as much as I can from the articles and posts on the boards. I have been narrowing my search more and more and think it may be time to finally try to get some assistance from the community. I have been looking for a round brilliant hopefully in the 1.25 carat range with a price under 10k. The one thing I wont compromise on is the cut, as this is the best approach, I think, from reading here. I originally wanted H or better, but budget seems to say I may be better choice, not sure how much of a sacrifice that will end up being. As far as clarity, I think Im content as long as it is eye clean.
If anyone would be willing to take a look at these diamonds and let me know thoughts or alternatives it would be greatly appreciated.
1.231 I SI1 HCA 1.5 verified eye clean by whiteflash. (My concerns/questions would be on the AGS cert image the leak leakage shown on the perimeter of the diamond and the change in color at 12 o'clock and 9 o'clock on the hearts image)

1.127 I VS1 HCA 1.3 (My concerns with this diamond are the change in color at 9 o'clock on the hearts image and once again some light leakage on the perimeter)

1.123 I VVS2 HCA 1.1 (This diamond looks pretty good to me, but I really wanted closer to 1.25 carat would this be a large difference)

1.22 H SI1 (finally an H, I know I probably need an idealscope image at least before proper judging, but any input would be nice)

Thanks so much in advance the search for a diamond is quite intimidating and I havent even found the setting yet, at least she agreed to help on that portion so hopefully wont be as difficult.
