    X Metal XX Rarity

    Looking around I've seen tons of posts about eBay being wildly overpriced. Does this also apply to the XX models? I assume they're quite a bit more rare, but I can't imagine it being 2X the price of Juliets. I have a larger head, so I have to track down a pair.

    Are these real?

    I found these at a thrift store for 2 euros and had them sitting around for months. Today I was curious what brand they where, and chatGPT said they were Oakley x metal penny, and it let me to this forum. How can I verify they are real?

    How readily available are replacement parts (aftermarket or OEM) for Oakley x metal models?

    I’ve seen x metals like the Romeo 1’s for sale for crazy amounts of money and it made me wonder, If you happen to drop them and something breaks can you even get replacement parts for a good price? I’d hate to spend upwards of $700 and have to worry about wearing the glasses

    Oxidation on Juliets

    Hi all, I’m wondering if there’s a way to treat oxidation on Juliets? Would refinishing these be worth it or is it better to just avoid picking up a pair in this condition altogether? Thanks!
