Dear Georges,

     The Aquamarine glass looks like it could be superb; the second one, I can't tell at the moment. Please look at the number of KB in the brackets under the photo; that will tell you the size. If I remember correctly, George always said 600-800 KB was optimal.
     I've never heard of Victor Choi's, but from Nov. 1996 to Oct. 2014, I stayed away from Hong Kong, so it doesn't really mean anything that I'd not heard the name.
   
Best,
Joey
