I don't really baby my daily driver x-metal juliets because Ikon lenses fit them perfectly, but the other two juliet pairs that I have, I don't use, so they don't get babied because they just aren't used.

Someone scored!

OH GOTCHA! I gotta look closer because at first glance, I always think the XS are just Juliets.

I'd recommend ordering a few sets of the Ikon ruby's and sort through them and keep what fits and send back what doesn't. I only say that because my understanding is that ALL X-Metal frames are going to have a slightly different lens fit because of how they were made.

My daily's are that finish, but my two other pairs are the plasma frames. One I inherited from a nephew, and the other are practically NOS. I wouldn't have an issue with doing that to one of those pairs if need be.

Juliets x3

Sending you a message. Thanks!

I'd imagine so considering that I have replaced the lenses in my Juliets twice now in the past 5 years even though they should have been replaced at least 3 times considering how rough I seem to be with them, which is why I just get the Ikon lens. With this pair being my "daily driver" so to...

I tried to be careful about the wording as that is the only use I would have for them.

So I have been contemplating having a good set of prescription lenses put in my Juliets, but I can't seem to reconcile with sending my frames off to do it. Having seen a previous thread about these fakes, I thought maybe get a set of those and send those in, but that begs the question of whether...

I left a set on my truck tool box and drove off to work. Sadly, they were GOOOOONNNNNNNEEEE when I realized they were nowhere to be found.

They did state that the cost would be higher. I'd assume because of the "lock ring" they mentioned. The original pins in my x-metals seem to have a slight "buldge" to them which makes me think they wanted more of a tighter press fit to them than would be with the straight pins. Did not know...

Once again for those that misinterpreted my post, I was not, and am not interested in trying to get a refund on the pins that I actually used.

It's o.k. I came here to get "edumacated", and I have. I've learned that if something isn't worded to the liking of people with 28k posts, you must be "unedumacated". Hey, if it makes you feel better, by all means, talk all the **** you want on the internet. At least I don't have to worry...

I'm sure it will be a party. Jesus, all I asked was if anyone had issues with the current pins.
