Shopping for a diamond is not my idea of fun but a man does what a man has to do… I guess I am looking for a round diamond .75-.90 ct, G-H clarity with no visible inclusions for about $2,500-$3,000 (or slightly more if it is a good deal).
Do you think any of these are good buys?

Any other suggestions? Many thanks for your help.
For someone who doesn’t enjoy it, you certainly did a great job! Those are three very nice stones. Out of the three, I like this one the best:

Simply because it’s the cheapest. The three stones would be virtually identical to you if they were in front of you now, so you might as well go with the one that will cost you the least.
Let me know what you think!
I very much appreciate your advice. I went ahead and bought the one you’d suggested. I also used a TADJ10 coupon for the setting.
You are running a great website. Good luck!
All the best
P.S. Loved your family pictures. Looks like you are blessed with beautiful kids…
Thanks for letting me know and thanks for the compliments on the pics 🙂
Please let me know what you think when the stone arrives!
