What Was Your First Pair Of X-Metals? Still Have Them?!? LETS SEE!

Romeo I back in 2001, got them for $50 from a friend. Wore them for 8 years before I knew what they were, now they sit on a shelf worn maybe 1-2x year.

DAMN THATS LUCKY!!! Well believe it or not. My very first pair of xmetals were the original x serialized juliets with ruby lenses I bought them off a guy on CL for 75 about 2 years ago. They were in the most crapiest shape ever and didnt know you could send them out to get repaired. SO... I sold them on ebay for 275 but regret it till this day.
 
Mine are a pair of Juliet's plasma with ice (still have them) i picked up when on holiday in florida back in 08 wish i know more about X Metals when i got these think i would have got a few more pairs at the same time
 
My first pair was Juliet Plasma with Ice Iridium Polarized. I might still have them today, I accidently stepped on them in the soft vault that was in my jacket pocket at a party. Apparently they fell on the floor and I didnt see it, I tore the metal that connects the Orbital to the nose bridge. After that I just bought another pair but I'm pretty sure I have them laying around somewhere. I'll find them after a few years when I move into a new house and find all the **** that I forget where I put it :p
 
First pair were Juliet's x-metal/bi that I bought while on another deployment in the Balad, Iraq Oakley store in 2009. Proceeded to lose them in some Irish bar in Germany about a year after I got back, swore them off til now once again on deployment. My first pair since then were x-metal/ruby that were BNIB that I found in an O type store in Qatar this year but paid a pretty penny for those. Only worn them twice since I'm trying not to damage the lenses with all the sand over here...

That cool man. I hope youll make a safe trip back home to your loved ones.
 
My first pair is a Juliet Plasma/ Ice and the frame is still in good condition but I recently replaced the lens due to bubbling issue.
