I came across this Oakley metal,I don't know if it's a real one. Seems like a XX but the steams are from a Juliet? I would like to buy this and I would like to hear some opinions about it. I also found two pair of Linegear lenses that the seller says they will fit a XX.

Aloha and welcome to the Forum.

I posted something a little earlier but am correcting myself. It does look legit. Only it looks like a Juliet and not an XX. And according to the serial number.

Here's what the Juliet Serials look like.

But the lenses' frame can be from an XX? Seems very different from a Juliet

Both frames are different sizes, so lenses are not compatible.

Just my opinion. But if you're starting on X-metals, a Juliet is perhaps the best starter pair. They're the cheapest of the X-metals. And more parts and lenses are available for Juliets than the other X-metal pairs.

Ok. Thanks. I Need to find fire iridium lenses according to the serial number. Can I find a seller here? And I think it needs a serious tune. I found it at a very good price

But the 1st gen Juliet has no letters I see.

Sorry. Not looking at things clearly. Rushing. My fault. Lol. You're correct. Every generation is Fire lenses. Duh. Welcome to the Forum.

No worries lol. What's the price for a good tuning? And the frame can be cleaned too in your opinion?thanks

That will vary from customizer to customizer. And there are variables like what exactly do you want done? Some of these guys can change your finish. Lens prices can vary a lot too, depending on what you're looking for. When I fix up one of my pairs, I use everything new. Screws, washers, everything, brand new. So You're better off asking that question to someone who can really help you. If you're in the states, @THE X-MAN is in the middle of the US. @zwc0442 is located on the west coast. Those two would be my first choices but there are others here.
