What are some of the brands that carries titanium frames? I've been reading the last few pages and found its interesting.

From past few pages:

Charmant: quick search online shows they are 300+
Lindberg: quick search online shows they are 700+


Any possibilities to have titanium frames below 300?

Where to try on Charmant frames in SG?

How much do we have to typically shell out for titanium frames?

Looks like plasta human frame. But unfortunately must replace whole thing. Unless you salvage the lens and find a frame to replace.

Again, unfortunately not for now... I can ask around for you tmr!

Thank you again, my spec is a Plasta Human PH007. Colour is of secondary priority, as long as I don't have to make a new pair.

By the way, if I can buy the frame, can I get your help to fit the old lens on the new frame?

Im wearing the lindberg titanium horn frame

Beware! Once you wear this you’ll never want to wear other brands

Been wearing mine for about 3yrs. Its the best frame I ever had and that day went to optical shop with wife. While she doing eye testing I just try some of the frames there. Really nothing fits or as comfy as lindberg. The salesperson also say, once u wear lindberg you wont want other brands
