Hello OF, pretty new in the forum but a longtime Oakley user. Mainly Prescription glasses (over 2 decades).

Have gone through a lot of RX Oakley frames over the years, but never had an RX Oakley sunglasses as I had no access to those at the time.

Recently undergone Lasik procedure and I am now RX free. I searched around for Oakley sunglasses immediately as I was now free to get whatever design I wanted. Got a few over the weeks and remembered a week back or so about the X-Metals. Then I stumbled upon this forum based on a guy in FB who reached out (@SEAN WAYNE).

The rest is history. Scored my first ever X-Metal from an absolute gentleman from here (@Ti man). He was very patient with my noob questions regarding the X-Metals. Long story short, he sold me an XX in an immaculate condition. Thanks again brother!

Immediately contacted @Chris A Hardaway for OEM custom cut lenses. Heard and read nothing but good things about him. Today, I received the lenses and Prizm Sapphire Polarized is the first one I installed. Absolute beautiful lens and tint.

Thanks to the guys that made this happen.

Now the 2nd X-Metal will soon be on the way. This is gonna be another deep rabbit hole.

Pretty sweet combo XX with Prism Saphire. Wondering whether I am going to get one of these as well (but likely without the polarized lenses). What's the color of the XX?

Thank you! The Prizm lenses are definitely great. Love the color contrast it provides.

It is the original X-Metal finish.

The XX metals were the last pair of metals I bought brand new from Oakley, I recently found a renewed interest to start expanding my small collection, I am going to hunt down a second pair myself.
