Although I've always wanted the Romeo and loved the XX... 14 years ago I was much thinner and the Romeos and XX was just too big for me. My wife said that the Juliets were a better fit and they were so I got a pair of 1st gen Plasma Juliets with Ice Iridium.
In 2004 I brought my Plasma Juliets into HQ and inquired about the plasma finish wearing off. They let me choose a new frame so it was either the new generation Plasma or the Polished with Hammerstems. I've always wanted hammerstems so the choice was easy. I basically recieved a new pair of Juliets in 2004.
Now that I'm no so thin... the Juliets (which I still love) look a bit small on my face. After joining the forum and seeing others with mutiple pairs of X Metals... I didn't feel so strange going after the XX and Romeo! (though my wife doesn't know yet)
So here is my XX I got off eBay for a fair price. It's X Metal with Black Iridium lenses. The lenses are in fair condition. InfiniteHero is getting me a set of +Red lenses and I'll likely buy a set of new Black Iridium lenses to keep safe. Frame has a little patina but nothing I can't live with. The X Metal shows bit darker than it really is...
