Hi all,

I have been reading posts and doing lots of research on this site for months, and now it's actually time to see diamonds in person. I am trying to select one of these stones to be viewed (I have one other that I'm sure I want to see) and would love your opinion. All are round brilliant, GIA 3X:

1. http://www.b2cjewels.com/Images//Certificate//3196886.pdf
2.02 ct, G, SI1, HCA 1.5
Depth: 60.9%
Table: 59%
Crown Angle: 33.5°
Crown Height: 14.0%
Pavilion Angle: 41.0°
Pavilion Depth: 43.5%

2. https://myapps.gia.edu/ReportCheckPortal/getReportData.do?&reportno=2131367509&weight=2.01
2.01 ct, G, SI1, HCA 1.6
Depth: 61.6%
Table: 57%
Crown Angle: 35.0°
Crown Height: 15.0%
Pavilion Angle: 40.8°
Pavilion Depth: 43.0%

3. https://myapps.gia.edu/ReportCheckPortal/getReportData.do?&reportno=2146071934&weight=2.00
2.00 ct, G, SI1, HCA1.2
Depth: 62.7%
Table: 55%

Crown Height: 15.0%
Pavilion Angle: 41.0°

My concern with #2 is it is older (cert on 5/9/2011) and from what I have learned on the forums it seems like I should question why this hasn't been bought yet. Is that accurate?

Would really appreciate any advice you can offer!
 
They are all worth seeing in person.
 
Unfortunately, I can only have 2 sent at a time!
 
Try #2.
 
Look at #1 and #2 if you can - both look good on paper. The last one is a bit too deep. Ask if they are eye-clean as well.
 
If you're ok with getting in 2 stones, is look at 1 and 2 with first choice going to 2 based on the numbers.
