Congrats on your first pair! Hope you get your second soon!

Me too!

Yeah that's a 2nd gen Ti or Plasma frame; back then they were still using sand casting (later switched to lost wax) and those sort of imperfections were common.

Congrats on the pickup!

Any plans to replace the LG lenses with some OEM / custom cuts?

They used sand casting? I've never heard that before. Are you sure that's right?

A sure as I can be from 2ndhand knowledge. Here's another thread:
