tag heuer and oaklay? u try liao can tell me? i scare they overpriced in SG leh.........

esp tag heuer....... i not willing to spend more than 500 on a spec with lens. if more than 500 i might as well buy oliver peoples.......

yar, tagheuer also came out with plastic versions though not as stylish, i ask already price is abt 300+ same as oakley crosslink though oakley is alot more stylish la & much better grip. usually plastic cheaper than metal.

Reasons why I nvr buy tag Heuer last year. There is problems with the rubber parts melting and becoming sticky..somehow it's cheaper locally than in France. Also nose bridge for me is very painful recently. Thus decided on plastic vintage frames. Tried starck and Oliver people too. Stack is about the same as tag so gave it a pass. Oliver people quality imo not there because currently machine made in Italy unless u get their vintage range handmade in Japan.

Check out Muge...
Japanese frame. Hand-made acetate with titanium temples.

Aspherical is 1.6 and above. 1.5 is uncoat lens. 1.56 is multicoat. Both 1.5 and 1.56 is spherical lens.

If u dun mind the slight thickness, ideally go for 1.67 lenses. Try not to go for 1.74 (unless ur very particular abt the thickness) as the abbe value for 1.74 is lower than 1.67 meaning less clarity. 1.74 abbé value is similar to 1.6 polycarbonate lenses.

Yes, was aiming towards 1.67. Any good shops to recommend?
