I bought these glasses from new, and they have not been worn a lot, on the basis that I have never really been sure that I suit them.
Following my post today on "What Oakleys Are You Wearing Today" where I uploaded a pic in my lunch-hour and posed the above thought, I am taking the resultant deafening silence to confirm my suspicions that I don't suit them!
Therefore they are up for trade.
They are Titanium SPIKE - i.e. made of titanium, not just titanium coloured.
Titanium Iridium lenses - with 'TITANIUM' etched into one lens.
Surprisingly lightweight for a big metal frame - obviously due to the Ti construction. Also I have swapped out the chunky gel-filled nose-pads for some standard clear soft rubber ones from other Wires. This cuts a bit of weight down too (as well as being more comfortable and less obvious!).
The frame is in 9/10 condition.
I say this because there are no marks or scratches on the frame at all - but the writing that has been printed on the inside of the ear-stems has worn a little (please see pics). It seems that titanium is a bit of a swine to adhere to.
The lenses are 9/10 condition.
I say this because there is a 1mm hairline scratch on the right eye lens. (A common Spike issue due to the way the ear-stems fold in and can touch the lenses, but I am so careful with my glasses that there is only this one minor mark.)
Spike lenses are pretty cheap to pick up though of course. And it's not on the lens with the etching.
Shoot me a PM if you are interested in a trade. You all know what I'm interested in. Hijinx (duh). Maybe an interesting Oil Drum? Eyepatch 2? Have a look at my 'About Me' for my current line-up of Oaks to get an idea of how I roll.
Here's a few pics I took tonight. If you want any others, just PM me.
