Well I posted this in the "what are you wearing" thread yesterday but crappy cell phone pics don't do it justice... I was pretty content with my O-Matter frames but after joining here I realised that I did in fact miss my old Juliet's........

I began trawling the X-Metal Exchange and noticed @GH4AU posted a thread with a few pairs of juliets for sale on of which being a first Gen J serial with custom cut Pos Red Iridium lenses as soon as a saw it I knew I wanted them. Griff was awesome to deal with and I would not hesitate to deal with him again.

They arrived yesterday and I couldn't be happier. The Pos Red look to me at least what the old ruby used to a nice deep red with hints of orange and purple and every time I look at these they remind me of Eric Bana in Black Hawk Down.

I've also picked up a few other X-metals already and will be giving one a bit of a conversion in the near future too. Anyway here's some pics

The pictures look great and your boy does as well. I hope he gets to feeling better soon! You were also a pleasure to deal with.
You chose quite a rare Penny for your first. It's a beauty!
 
Looking good mate. Hope the young fella gets better quickly.
Which part of Oz are you in?

Thanks mate. Over the other side in Brisbane.

Convoyed across the Nullabour and spent some time in Perth/Freemantle before heading out to Bindoon for some training years ago
