How do I check that a diamond is really 11 mm?

Measure across the girdle with a millimetre gauge, or read the measurements on the grading report, written like 10.98–11.02 × 6.71 mm (smallest and largest diameter × depth). Use the average diameter and the total depth in the calculator.

Does an 11 mm lab-grown diamond weigh the same?
