Yeah, it's not just the purple but also the reds. The 1st gens are really special lenses. There is a holographic type of sensation when you look at them. The color is so deep that the eye gets lost. They hypnotize me sometimes in low light when I see them in the display case. Combine an X Metal frame and you have some of Oakleys finest work.
Lol yah they hypnotize me and make me pull out my wallet. I feel you completely. lol.
