FYI, the Eyechamp chain got Diwali 50% discounts until 26-Oct. T&Cs apply - but not sure what are excluded.

What's the thinnest grade of hi-index for a person with 800+ degree myopia out there? Was told its 1.8 for glass and 1.74 for plastic? Is that correct?

 

[Seannie]

Yes, it is made from titanium, but it doesn't come in blue. Are you sure that it is a Transistor you've got there?

There are other similar-looking but cheaper, Oakley half-rims that are made from alloys and stainless steel.

how much does transistor cost before discount?

how much does transistor cost before discount?

$440 from Paris Miki. No discount.

You should be able to find Transistors for $350 online w/o warranty.

Tag Heuer is too wide, Porsche Design is too deep and Ray-Ban is just too small, for me.

Yeah it obviously is. I didn't know it comes in blue.

Regardless of color, the material is clearly stated as 'Titanium', there's no reason the salesperson should have told you otherwise. It wouldn't make sense for Oakley to make a stainless steel version of the same model with the same name.

oh, so transistor is even cheaper than wingspan?
wad other oakley models do you have? Do you have the experience of wearing oakley plastic frames? Is the fitting good on our asian nose just like their metal frames range?

 

[Seannie]

anyone has the experience of their oakley frames color dropping off a little bit? Could this be due to their spray painting process not being good enough?

 

[tildveryn]

should the axis be the same for different frames?

 

[2pm2am]

should the axis be the same for different frames?

what axis are you talking about? your astig? they should be the same unless there are some changes in your prescription.
