Please Help Me Identify These Oakley Fives

[mihaixp]

Last autumn (after discovering this forum) I bought my first pair of Oakley sunglasses. The model is Fives, and their code is O3-365. The model can be seen here: http://www.oakley.com/products/6200/22478.

Now, I'd like to buy a pair of aftermarket fire red lenses and the stores on the evil bay sell lenses either for Fives 3.0 or for Fives 4.0. Which one is my model? The third or the fourth generation?

Cheers,
Mihai

Just found them in a database: http://o-review.com/database_detail.asp?table_name=glasses&ID=4666

Now, can someone recommend me a good pair of aftermarket lenses? I know some guys, Visionary Lenses if I remember correctly. Are their lenses good enough? (at least not to damage your eyesight)

They are Fives 4.0. Oakley doesn't offer replacement lenses for these, unfortunately. For aftermarket, Visionary Lenses are ok, but not as good as stock. You could always buy another pair on eBay for pretty cheap, just to salvage the lenses.

They are still in pristine condition. I just like those red lenses (I liked those worn by Cyclops in X-Men but they are too expensive for me).

There was never a Ruby Iridium lens for Fives 4.0 unfortunately. If you get a Fives 3.0 or Squared, you can order replacement Ruby lenses for those.

Dr Chop might be able to make it happen for you by cutting a lens to fit.

I gave it a little thought and I ended up ordering another pair: Oakley Fives 4.0 with grey frame and fire iridium lenses. Will post pics as soon as I receive them.

Good choice. That was the best colorway for the 4.0 series anyway!

Yep. I guess so. I just found out that there are ruby iridium lenses too that have a reddish. Well, I suppose the price would have been much steeper too.

Really nice choice...
