You know it bro! If I can't wear it, I'm not collecting it.[/QUOTE]

I'm with you on that one. I know there are collectors that have pairs they'll never wear. Because they don't want to ruin them. And there's nothing wrong with that. That's cool. But I buy them to show them off. Everything that I've bought will be worn. Unless I have two of them. Lol.
 
Big thanks to @Atticus, R1 #4 a custom black cerakote beauty. I now have my "carbon" R1 to match the Juliet.

That ruby looks pretty deep too! You've been spending a lot lately, mister!

Shhh! I am not if my wife asks. @Chris A Hardaway needs to spill the beans on what this particular "ruby" is. My man Atticus tells me they are the ones he had up a while back that are aftermarket. Nice clarity to them though.

Nice pics...you need a good custom XX to go with those.

You've taken enough of my money for now....I do like those XX though...

I bought some random "cheap" lenses for a project off ebay about a year ago. After buying that the seller in China reached out to me and told me he gets "authentic" oakley lens blanks on 8.75 base curve and did I want to buy a bunch for $20/pair. I told him I was hesitant (I thought their lenses were made in the USA for example).... But I agreed to buy 5 or 6 pair I think. When I got them in there was a really cool almost OO Red Polarized looking blank, a Ruby iridium blank, and I can't remember what else. I could tell immediately they weren't actual "authentic" oakley blanks for various reasons, but they were still nicer than the aftermakret blanks I've been accustomed to seeing from Essilor/Optisource,ABB vision etc.

Anyway, bottom line is if they are what I think they are I chopped em up and sold them for $60 a pair?!

Looks good @beau1890
