Hi,
Admittedly, it's a nice dilemma to have but I feel you guys are the only ones that I can ask to help me decide.
I've already got a pair of Rootbeer Pitboss with the Tungsten Iridium and I'm thinking of getting another pair of either the Polished or Matte Black.
I can get either for pretty much the same price so that's not a factor.
I like the Polished and the Matte pretty much equally with a slight leaning more toward the polished.
The main sticking point is the lenses.
- Is the VR28 too close to the Tungsten in terms of look and feel?
- Would I be better getting the Matte with BIP then I'll have the 2 options of a nice contrast lens and the darker BIP? I'm not wanting to swap out the lenses or buy extras either so no point suggesting getting the Polished then buying the BIP!
- How different in real life do the Ti plates look between the Polished and Matte frames? In some photos the Polished frame plates look really dark, almost black. Is this correct? Anyone with proper all round, side by side comparison photos would be awesome.
Any opinions or insights would be great. Any excuse to discuss Pitbosses is always good anyway.
Cheers everyone
Marc
