Hey Romeo where abouts in England you live? Would love to see your collection. I'm near Brum

Did you manage to buy a camera so you can post some pictures of your enourmous collection?

 

[i'm broke now]

Romeo, so when did you start collecting and what was your first pair?

Romeo, 800 pairs seems like a vast amount: but oh. what artistic delight! Sounds
like Nirvana to me! What treasures lay within your realm.....

No. One day I will do it, but will want to do a good job of it. I have explained before that I have little interest and certainly no talent with modern technology.

First pair was New Frogskins - Texas Tea - Gold 03-104 which Gail bought for me as a gift on 6th July 1999. That is the when the collection was born. I still have the pair, complete and in perfect condition.

The main assets are the quantity, 826 pairs, covering examples of the vast majority of models (except ladies), examples of all but 3 sunglass lenses, including all 12 known (to me) unreleased lenses, 65 out of the 70 production x metals, 117 gen 3 Frogskins, most exclusive/artists/signature issues, a number of complete sets, and the vast majority of items are in excellent to mint condition. I am aware there are countless pieces I don't have and am unlikely to find so the collection will in many ways remain a small part of the entire range of products Oakley have made.
