X Metal pair #2 arrived today. Plasma Juliet Ice Blue. I had the day off to go to something in the morning, got the alert that pkg was out for delivery. Got home around noon and probably checked my mailbox 6 times between then and 4ish when they were delivered. Huge thanks to Jacob Carsten on the forum here. Had a shelf quality pair in a daily wearer price. Now I have to find a pair of X Squared that fit that description.

They almost look gold in this pic. Ran a bunch of errands wearing them. Now I remember why I loved my first pair. You don't really ever feel them on your face. Or on your head, or when they're not on either because they needed a tuneup for a while and you kept putting it off and they kept falling off your head so you set them down in a public bathroom and didn't realize they were. Not. On. Your. Head. When you got home. I'm getting therapy for it.
 
Some observations - 24 hours of being back in the Juliet game after 4 years.

I seem to remember them being bigger.
A tight nosebridge makes a huge difference
Im 100% certain now the one pair I had was the Titanium finish. Definitely like it the most.
Im going to rethink my XMetal pursuit now.

Update: Traded my TiO2 XX to JDD32 for XM XX. Like this frame color much better. It was a frames only trade so I ordered some Fuse Cosmic lenses, one lens didn't fit 100% but is tight. These will definitely be getting a lot of face time.
