Thanks Seannie. Do you know if KS carries Starck? And what would be a reasonable price?
I googled abit a few months back and saw it for about USD400 online. But I forgot which website it is anymore.

Even KS have limited starck.

Hi guys,

I just broke my specs and want to make a new pair. Any advice on what lens brands to look at? Is the crizal preventia or eyezen good? Got transition? Or are there any other brands?

Also. Will it be cheaper to make in JB? Any shop to recommend?

Went to KS earlier and got hooked on the Mykita... So much lighter than the Starck. Pricewise not so much different. I am sold.
Just that they do not have the colour I want for the moment. Will have to wait for stock to arrive.

Thanks for the advise Seannie!

Jb is cheap now because of the currency I guess. Comparing to sg, just need to find ur trusted shop who can provide u good service.

Aftersales service is too troublesome lar.

 

[jervin88]

Haha depend on individual liao. Although I agree the time taken to go jb and come back is not that fast either. Time is also money

Yah yah

But im fixated on mykita

Probably will shelf out the cash

Local safer bah (at the expense of price)

Warranty also easier to settle

Been going to grand optical for all my spec

Bought Mykita with Crizal Eyezen @ JB for around SGD590. I feel its worth it.

Just made this pair in Tokyo that costs me only $57 with prescribed lens done in 30 min. I top up another $57 for 1.6 index, so at $114 in total the price and speed of service is unbelievable more attractive than any shop in Singapore, even their progressive is only $100 more, can't understand why our spec here so expensive???
