Juliet Hammer! (not The One You Been Waiting For Though)

[BriP]

So today I come home and what could be waiting for me but a few of my Oakley Purchases!

Firstly - The Hammered Juliet joins the ranks

Pimp daddy Romeo and his two girls

And.. this is the X-Metal collection so far.. the Penny is STILL away..there is a slot empty.. you'll notice the half-X is also new to the ranks.. not a fan though..haha

AND the Beater XX (and temporary Juliet arm donor) is on its way in!

Sweet collection man. Love the Romeo (which I will likely never own one of). I'm digging that X Metal finish on the Juliet too...I just picked up on a pair of X Metal finish Juliets on the bay with the X Metal Soft Vault for $170 shipped...I hope they're in as good a shape as the (brand new to ebay) seller says they are...going to unload the black irid. lenses for $20, $25 and buy some Emerald Iridium to put in. $200 with a vault for X Metal and Emerald? Kewl.

The X-metal finish is my favourite too, its just cool.. but the polished is growing on me!

That sounds like a really good pickup! I have another thread on the X-metal vaults in the discussion section..

My Penny has the Emerald green lenses so I wont be doing that to a Juliet. Yet. haha!

PS.. keep checking eBay.. I got this pair of Romeos not a month ago at $250! They're practically new!

Good advice...I'll keep hunting....hmmm......just when I thought the collecting was slowing down...

Mr Jono Sir,... that IS the objective of my collection!

I got sidetracked with the Polished J though!

Never, ever give up on coming across a Romeo! I recently picked up a nearly-mint, low-serial, in-box Romeo off of Craiglist for a whopping $75! I drove an hour to go pick it up, and couldn't believe it was legit! I fully had the intention to sell it as I already had a pair, but so far, I can't think of letting it go!

BriP AWESOME collection of the range, Romeo 1's & Mars Carter's are two of my fav frames. I'm so close to having the money together to make my first purchase of some X-metal's. I'm thinking of the X-squares at the moment or possibly the Juliets but i want the hammer stem ones too.
Nemesis if you ever want out of the Romeo's let me know. I'll take them off your hands for that price Honest i wouldn't want you out of pocket) plus carridge......................LOL
