My last update: updated diamond mesh to better representate real gem, removed reflection from the floor, some changes in light setup, added better(hope so) caustics, changed angle of wiew.
Enjoy...

Nice work.....Reflection would have been even better if it would have been a darker background.....Beautiful...
very nice work...gl author
wow....never thought a diamond can just lie down a flat surface and still look cute!
This looks fab. I think you have greatly improved your diamond, it looks so much more punchier.
thanks much to you all, I am pleased about yours critique. I know, that it isn't perfect, but nobody is perfect.
RichieMB, thanks to your post, my surface caustics settings are by now somewhere about 10M photons, and 500% light energy. I think, that the black matte is the key, why the caustics isn't so clearly visible.
yup caustic is very hard on a black matte
a light color would show caustic more.
Very good job with this.
very nice
Congrats for your first place, Mires!
Congrats, this really is beautiful
Congratulations for 1st
Thanks much once more. The other are pretty hard to beat. Thx.
