Crosshair gen 1 or Crosshair s?

[DOakley]

Hello guys

I've got my Crosshair for long time, as far as i can remember they are the original (gen 1).
i want to renew them now and suddenly i'm not certain if they aren't crosshair s,
the sku erased a while ago so i can't find it on the O-Review.
can anybody help identify them?

Thanks in advance

SKU 12-848, I believe.
Crosshair S have a more rounded outside bottom edge to the lens.

Looks like a Crosshair S

This illustrates the Crosshair S; note the bottom edge of the orbital.

Notice also the distance between the top wire frame and the nose arch.
The Crosshair S has a smaller aperture between the two wires.

Hello flyer

thank you, i checked sku: 12-848.
it's sims that the pair I've got match to that.

i have another question related to Crosshair, for you or for other guys here:
i need to replace the lenses for this pair, since the tint is peeling.

i found a replacement kit on : opticsplanet.com
this is the link: Oakley Crosshair Replacement Lens Kit w/ Free S&H — 8 models
is it an oem kit? will it fit to the Crosshair gen 1?

is it an oem kit? will it fit the Crosshair gen 1?

Thanks in advance again

Those appear to be for the 2012 edition and won't fit your Gen 1.
You are looking for SKU#s that start with 13-, eg. 13-498 is Black polarized.
You may have difficulty finding OEM for the Gen.1, though they do show up occasionally.
Perhaps something in a nice custom cut?

Thanks for the detailed answer
so there is a replacement on opticsplant that it's SKU# is: 13-498, and it's written: black iridium.
also the picture of this kit on the site look's suitable, can i assume that this is what i need?

a nice custom cut is possible, the thing is that i'm in Israel so the shipping might be problematic and a bit expensive.
but if you got recommendation and an idea how to ship it, let me know

... it's SKU# is: 13-498, and it's written: black iridium...

That number should give you "Polarized", (which would be text etched in the lower left lens).

As flyer has mentioned, this is a gen 1 Crosshair not an 'S'. If you need lenses you might want to try @Oakster on here. I had 2 pairs of lenses from him last year, brilliant service too.
