Hi, I need a replacement diamond for my wife’s wedding ring. It was originally a ~.4 carat marquise diamond in yellow gold with very small side stones. I would like to replace it with a .6-.7 carat round stone. Looking for good value less than ~$1350.
Found this one. Any recommendations?

I would recommend going up in color. This is what I suggest for you:
It has a medium fluorescence which makes the advantage of the J color more acute. It will be even brighter. What do you think?
Thanks for the response. I noticed some small inclusions. Would this diamond be eye clean?
I am confident the diamond is eye-clean.
I should have just gone with what you recommended as the diamond is now unavailable. Do you have another suggestion? Thanks for your assistance.

That’s great! Thank you!
