What pair gets you the most compliments?

24K XX and believe it or not I have a polished clear / violet style switch and every time I have worn them out, I get someone asking me about them or telling me what a nice pair of shades they are.
 
Wife and I were walking the strip in Vegas one year.
I was wearing XX 24K
Hawker stopped and took the time to tell me how much he admired them
I immediately went in and lost hundreds in a Casino :(
 
I have received some compliments on my Deviations. Black frame, black lenses, so nothing fancy. They do have some great small details that aren't easily noticed.
 
Jawbreaker on the rare occasions I wear them off-bike. Part of it is because I swapped parts so it makes a less ordinary combo.

But actually, not to go OT, my Smith Pivlocks drew insane attention. One giant (V90 Max) gold, frameless, shield lens...and it was weird because I just saw it as a stand-in pair as I was deciding which casual O pair to get while my "top" pair was the Radarlock used exclusively for riding, so I really thought nothing of it.
 
I almost never get compliments on my Oaks, but when I do it tends to be a pair of Juliets. Don't know if it actually has anything to do with them being Juliets vs. a different frame or if it's just the law of averages since I wear Juliets more that anything else.

Got one on an XX, but that mostly looks like a Juliet...

Then the one big exception when I got a compliment on radarlocks with prizm trail.
 
The pair I got the most compliments on was my Troy Lee EP2. Seemed like every time I wore them out someone said they looked nice.
 
Juliets, though I'm sure most don't make any distinction between pairs. A friend really liked my carbon Ichiros on Friday; she liked the 24ks too, maybe she can just suss out the most expensive pairs!
