Took a punt on Romeo

315 ?????? seriously???????
Oh my god , you just hit the jackpot
hook me up too
 
I've got 'em !

They have been dismantled, given a good bath and re-assembled.

One of the orbitals appears to have more of a gold tint than the rest of the frame.

Thinking it may not be suitable to make a TiO2.

Will post pics when I get up. It's 3:00 AM :)
 
hmmn, either a franken r1 or plasma discoloration. most likely the latter.

Yeah I think it's discoloration.

It just about shows up in the attached pics.

I'm not sure if much can be done about that, so I may well send them to X-Man for TiO2 finish.

The existing lenses are trash, so I'll put a set of custom cut Ruby in for now.

Thanks for all your advice.

Where did you score them from?

I got them on Trademe, which is a local auction site.
The trouble is you've got to have a kiwi bank account to use it.

Had a couple of good finds over the last year or so on there.

I picked up a complete mint X-Metal Ducati Juliet a couple of weeks ago
for roughly US$ 470 and complete Penny Titanium Ice for US$ 220 back in July.
 
The Romeo looks great, nice pick up, seems like you been getting really good deal for x-metals, congratulations on good finds
