Oakley Juliet... Legit or Fakes

[NashCasten]

The reason I'm asking is because I've never seen these marks on Juliets before. It seems that they're laser etched.

Those look legit to me. I always look at the ends of the earstems and the orbital gaskets. Usually on the fakes, the ends of the earstems end in a slight outward angle whereas genuine are straight at the end of the earstems. Also, on genuine Juliets, the opening where the orbital gaskets go and the lenses are locked in place by the screws, the opening is at a 90 degree angle to the lense, whereas on fakes the gap for the orbital gaskets is usually angled more to the outside of the frame. At least the ones I have seen. Someone else may be able to give more info/better explanation than I. I believe that these are referred to as "SKU Frames", this particular being a later generation plasma/fire combo. Towards the end of production, they went away from the serials and went to the SKUs on the frames. Hope this helps!

Everything looks correct. Those markings are the frame measurements and sku.
