X-metal demographic question

Nope, I wont wear that one! I was just talking to @GRFMotorsports about a brittle and cracked camo TC.

But I’m on both sides of this argument. I’ll pick a Mars Crater as #1 frame every time.

Dont get me wrong. Xmetals are badass. Basically indestructible material that will last your lifetime. But there is only 7 or 8 true xmetal frames where as there is hundreds of awesome vintage omatters. If I had to choose between both in GENERAL it would be that old skool omatter. The trench coat was my first true love:brunette:

I agree with that. I fit all of my X Metals in one case. That would never happen with O Matter.
 
You must be thinking of pre-omatter. I'e never had a pair of omatter frames break
Unfortunately, I had a zero 0.3 that I owned for about just over 20 years. A friend tried them on last year and accidentally snapped them in half.

What if I could go back in time and could choose to either suffer the loss of my zero 0.3 or have my left testicle crushed slowly in a woodchip machine without an anaesthetic while still attached to me?

Of course I’d choose the loss of the zero. It’s not even close.

But yeah. It still hurt.

If I could go back in time and choose between my snow camo trenchcoats and your left testicle I would choose the trenchcoats. Sorry bro
