Hey all,
I'm Scott, I'm from the UK, and i've just startd a bit of an X-Metal collection.
I've wantd some sor years, but I've only just got round to buying some - thank-you e-bay!
So far I have a pair of Movie Release Juliets with 'X' S/N (which I've just put a set of new Oakley Ruby lenses in, to take them back to as standard as I can) these aren't in too bad condition, given their age. Lense close-up:
Second purcase was a set of Carbon Juliets (I've just put some new Oakley Polorised Black lenses in):
The only issue I have is thr Carbon frames have an issue with the left arm not sitting level.
However this can be traced all the way back to the hinge, the Olakley logo does not sit central in the T-Shock.
From what I've read on here, most likely cause is a badly drilled hinge.
Some slight wear under the hinge where the paint has rubbed off.
Below shows the arm level difference:
Both have just been serviced by Oakley too.
I'm keeping my eye out for some more, missed some Penny's yesterday but probably need to ease up for a bit anyway, let the bank recover a bit.
Anyways, jus a quick hi (or not so quick as it would seem).
