Hi all,
See my previous post for context but TLDR: I am looking for a decently cut diamond that is in the upper 'range' of GIA XXX - which displays nice fire and brightness. I am not wedded to simply going down the super ideal route as I have a carat weight target I would like to hit and options in Aus are limited. I am simply trying to avoid buying a dud XXX.
With that out of the way, I have selected the below diamond from a jewellers virtual inventory (which I can return if I am not happy with it in person).
I am aware that:
- It is indeed close to 60/60 proportions (vs a smaller table and better depth for a more TIC/ideal style diamond)
- Has some slight pavilion twist visible on the H&A
- Heart at 2'oclock is distanced from the chevron w/ black area above the top of it
- Arrows not totally 'ideal'
- The ASET is computer generated albeit, it is the best I can get without putting it under a scope myself.
Is there anything I am missing on the 360 video as this has been the part most difficult to interpret as well as major issues in general?
