Keep An Eye Out Tomorrow...

I'm lost to why the earstems have that specific detailing and big circle when they seemingly serve as nothing. Can anyone snag a clear pic of the opposite side? I literally only find his right side. Can't really make sense of a possible switchlock mech. Maybe the whole lower orbital swings down or something. Love the upper orbital section. Has that aggressive cut I wish the Radarlock did.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a way off prototype - unlike the Jawbone when it debuted. Those earstems just don't add up in my mind. I'm not sure if it even has a conventional closure. Not to mooch off o-review but they did spot a patent for a frame dubbed"Jawbreaker" whose publication review was complete on June 27. I'm insanely curious....because sportpair :p

Weird take is I'm also wondering if that big circle around the logo is actually a "C" for Cavendish, but last I checked he's not Shaun White status with O yet.

Well if it was a rush job like the Jawbone in 2008, someone snagged a $10K+ pair of Oakley's today. Now with more screen shots available it looks like a take on a sketch that has been posted either here or O-review in the past. The trademark was initially filled in August of last year, so wonder if the sketch was seen at RED?
 
I am sure the big circle on on one side servs as a pivot for a switchlock mechanism which takes thewhole lower frame down for lens changing.
