Hello!
I have read a lot of your reviews on oval diamonds and I think what I am looking at to buy is an ideal diamond. However, I would like a second opinion, here is the link to the diamond:

This is the setting I want if that helps:
14K White Gold Common Prong Round Shaped Diamond Engagement Ring
My total budget is $4k to $5k.
Let me know what you think!!
The setting you selected is beautiful, I like it a lot! Unfortunately, the diamond you sent me has medium fluorescence which is a problem on such a high color. It might end up looking hazy in daylight.
I found a couple of beautiful alternatives:

They have a nice cut and all of them would look colorless and be very brilliant in the setting you’ve chosen.
I did not consider the fluorescence! I knew it was a great idea to contact the Diamond Pro Team!
Ok so I reviewed the diamonds that you sent and I love them all. I noticed there was a significant price drop from the .84 diamond to the .80. I originally chose .9 because of the very subtle size difference from 1 carat. However, given your expertise I rather have the quality over the size.
So I must ask what diamond of the ones you selected would you choose? The best bang for my buck?
Out of the options I sent you, I love the https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/oval-cut/0.80-carat-h-color-vs1-clarity-sku-8599508?a_aid=dmnd1357 the most. It’s a great value for the price and it’s a very nice looking diamond. My #2 champion would be https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/oval-cut/0.84-carat-f-color-vs1-clarity-sku-8646687?a_aid=dmnd1357 because it’s slightly larger.
Awesome. I do think I will opt for the larger stone. Something about the F color is enticing. And my soon to be fiancé has larger hands so the added size will be flighty more flattering.
Awesome. That one is a beauty!
Hey! I just purchased the ring. Thank you again for everything!
That’s great news!
