Oakley fuel cell deep h20 polarized lenses for Sale in Fontana, CA - OfferUp
Can anyone vouch for these sapphire iridium polarized fuel cell lenses being legit?

I contacted the seller an they said they look just like DWP, but they're not prizm. Fuel's never offer Sapphire polar from what I can tell, an they aren't the right color for the older salt water blue tints
they are also on eBay Oakley Fuel Cell Sapphire Polarized Lenses | eBay

I won’t. They don’t look sapphire to me...

Atticus is correct. Sapphires are a nice bright blue. So the color on those doesn't look right. For my experience on deep water lenses. All the ones I've ever seen was Prizms. And it said 'Prizm P' on the lens. Not 'polarized'. I'm suspicious.

Agree they have no deep blue or purple in them, it just look purely like DWP.

That seller claims they are a employee that works in the science labs that develop the various iridium coating dyes at HQ. I bought some Flak lenses from him without any complaints, although he was on a different ebay account... which is now deactivated for w/e reason?

Those "sapphire lenses" are the only pair he has that looks kind of suspicious... Profile: Lorenzo - OfferUp

He's gotta a whole bunch of lenses so maybe that claim for working at HQ holds water... But then again I don't know how good the fakes have gotten?

Wasn't there a story recently about someone working for Oakley selling a ton of stuff on the side including some proto pieces?

There was a thread on here maybe a month or two ago on it.

Edit: just Googled it and saw that was back in '08 but still recall a thread about it (either new or revived) talking about it.

Found the thread (from a month ago)

Never heard about this 2008....
