For OEM cut lenses, I’d say $100 +/-. If you try to find OEM etched, you looking at $175 or more, since they are rare and not made anymore. (This is the original style that’s actually in the frame now)
You may be able to get regular BI cut for less, or a more “unique” lens, such as maritime for more...check out Chris Hardaway thread for already cut lenses...
I appreciate all the info! I wasn't really considering an R1 as my first pair due to their general price cost being in the 550+ range was trying to keep it around half that, just to see if I'd enjoy them. However with them costing only slightly more than the Juliets I mentioned, seems like they might just be worth the investment to restore. Seems like they're the most popular pair of metals, or at least have the biggest following?
