I’ve checked it in the video from loupe360 (cannot share the link because it’s a new account) but as I’m totally new to diamond I can’t determine which is major which is not. All I can see is there are inclusions all around the stone. VS1 is not an option for me because they don’t have one in similar spec. Also, does “cut score” really matters? I’ve seen some saying that it affects brilliance, fire and sparkle even when comparing among the 3Exs.

Below is the link

And is this alright?

Hey, sorry for late reply, have been busy.

The crystal is highly unlikely to affect anything at a significant scale. Is just that black inclusion is easier to see that transparent one.

I can no longer access the link you provided, probably because you purchased the stone already.

The proportions seem fine if you are within both red and blue area of the diamond screener tool. Basically it is just a tool for reference, but I find it quite useful as it also shows stone with similar proportions.

The image you provided for the stone seems more aligned to the left, which doesn't do justice to the stone. I hope that in proper front view the arrows are well-aligned.

Thanks Sifu for your comments!

But bad news, after discussing with ma girl, she want a real diamond and dont mind smaller carat, so new conflict is here

What do you think sifu?
0.43 Carat. F, VVS2, 3ex = RM 4.2k (GIA :2456702765)
0.54 Carat, G, VS1, 3ex = RM 4.9k (GIA :1425225323)

To me, I prefer the proportions of 0.54ct since it is closer to the range of those super ideal diamonds, such as WhiteFlash ACA specs.

G is a decent colour and VS1 is definitely a sweet spot for me.

So, in this case, 0.54ct it is.

However, please take note that there is no actual diamond or video to refer to, so basically we are still pretty much buying blind.

If the diamonds are available for viewing, suggest you to visit to the store and take a look and compare them side-by-side.

both diamonds are from Lavin, and this is the 0.54 -> https://www.lavinnewyork.com/pages/DiamondD...9a200163e0001bb

I can see some dots (crystals?) at the bottom from the enlarged 360 picture, is that bad?

It is a VS1, so you probably can’t see it most of the time unless you put your eye closely to it.

The arrow on the 12 o clock position is not that aligned though. You can shortlist this, but do look for options from them, there should have more.
