Ha Ha me too.
I never expected all of this. I was just hoping someone would help me find a arm for them but looks like they are getting a full refurb.

Ok another update on making the Scuba Juliet great again!
I just got a message from @jdd32
He had a new undamaged left arm for them. He gave me a great deal on the arm and also......
He said if I send them to him he will refinish and tune them up for free!!!!!!!!
Wow guys I don't even know what to say you all have been so generous with this. Thank you all for the kind comments and for helping so much with this project.

Awesome story! Lucky find also. This forum is filled with great people. Are you going to keep them in X Metal color or change them? I keep wondering what the rust finish like @kronin323 would look like with DWP lenses.
I have a Fathom microbag I will donate to go along with this pair if you want.

Wow that's awesome! I'm pretty sure this definitely qualifies as a pretty great day in anyone's book!

How did you spot them? Were they buried and one of the angles caught your eye? Or the right stem was just sticking out from the bottom of the sea? Did you see yourself in the BI reflection and think to yourself "those look like BI lenses - OMG they are!" haha.

Also it's really awesome how the X-Metals are built in such a modular way that they can be completely rebuilt from pieces even if all you have is one left stem. Also, sea water not being able to pwn the frames after who knows how long is proof these things are built for life. Man Oakley thought of and put everything into this series!

I keep wondering what the rust finish like @kronin323 would look like with DWP lenses.

That would certainly be an interesting contrast.

DWP seems to be the "flavor of the day" lately...

Thank you! I don't know about a finish yet. I was thinking either go back with the original X-metal finish or go with Carbon. I should really ask all of you because this is a community project now. What does everyone think and should I start a poll on frame color?
