Real or fake? Logo looks ok, Hinges look ok, the right one looks a bit funny on the outside. but I don’t see Japan on the end of the temple, and the color way... did that exist on Gen 1?
If I remember correctly the "Japan" stamps tends to rub off after continious use (same thing happens to skus in newer pairs). The left hinge definitely looks weird, makes me think it came of and then it was super glued or something on to the frame. The riverts on the right leg seem to have some sort of lines, which looks like rust or some deep scratches, and I'm not sure about the lenses, they don,t look like BI, at least not like the gen 1s I've seen.
To be honest, even if it is a real pair, I would'nt touch it. Seems like it was used alot, and getting parts for them ain't easy these days, I'm sure you can get a better set and not so far off with the prices in the sale threads
