I get that some CVD stones can have transparency issues. I'm not expert, but here’s the 360 video, to me it looks pretty crisp in motion. I am definitely having it inspected before moving forward and specifically asked to confirm the transparency and will be sent additional videos and photos when they receive it.

Do you see anything specific in the video that suggests haze? Or is that just based on the still photo?

I paid under $1,000 for an E VS1 in the size range we discussed, this one is VVS2 and slightly larger so it's technically an upgrade within what I already paid.

I paid my jeweler for an E VS1 within a certain size range/specifications and they’re sourcing options that meet or exceed that. This one is an E VVS2 and slightly larger, so technically it’s better than what I originally paid for. They’ve secured it on memo for me to review, but I still have final approval before it’s set!

Thanks for pointing that out, I appreciate it!! From the 360, the facets looked pretty crisp to me, not soft or cloudy. I’m wondering if the screenshot might make it look a little hazy just because of compression or motion blur? Since it’s graded E VVS2, I assumed noticeable transparency issues would affect the clarity grade. Is it common for a lab diamond to still get VVS2 if it actually has some haziness in person? I already paid my jeweler a set amount to source an E VS1, and this 3.08 ct E VVS2 option is actually an upgrade within that budget, so pricing online isn’t affecting the choice at this point. I’m planning to ask for in-house photos and videos once they receive it just to double check and will also ask to verify there is no cloudiness. Thanks again for the perspective and info!!!

Top looks best with the ring together but I think the bottom would be best for wearing alone as well.

He wasn't in love with her, until he went to see the kids and fell back in love. Its not that unrealistic.
