Rayban Aviator is still undisputed King of Kings

Jolie is wearing Oliver Peoples Strummer, one of the nicest aviator. She also wore it in Wanted. Brad Pitt also wore the same model in Ocean 13 I think.

Very expensive though, about 500-600 cheapest?

yea zenith cannot, what I mean is Panorama which is almost similar with zenith but can be made into prescription.

http://www.thaiopticalgroup.com/news8_en.htm

problem is I haven't seen this model sold in Singapore, and I think the price will be very expensive since the lense must be made by Tag Heuer itself

I finally managed to find price of Panorama at Indonesia.

They have 2 types, curved and normal. Curved the frame is around 500sgd, the normal frame is around 700sgd.

For curved lens, if got cylinder cannot make. And for curved, the lens must be made by Tag Heuer itself, price is around 900sgd close to 1k.

Darkangle you can start saving :s13:

For me I think Oakley is my choice after seeing Panorama's price

Yeah..in my opinion, Oliver peopls and dior homme aviators are the nicest and not as common as Raybans...

But Dior Homme quite hard to get, especially in SG, even the prescription frame also very rare.

yea if you want normal rimless frame i think easy to find cheap one. but this Panorama is different which is why not many place sell. Actually in that shop the frame is not expensive, other model are around 350 only. I guess Panorama is more expensive. And I guess the lens for this model must be done by Tag, which of cos will be very expensive.

such a shame though as Panorama looks like zenith

Where's a good place to buy oakleys?

theres a few Oakley concept stores, one at Vivo, another one at Suntec. i would say they have a very wide selection, if not you can go queensway shopping ctr, there also have a few shops well stocked.

hi bro, you can contact the SG Oakley agent here.

http://oakley.com/customer_service/worldwide_offices/singapore

the ruby replacement lens if im not wrong cost $140-$150 per pair. But the colours dun really resemble the ones from the cyclops x-men era liao, now more like fire iridium. haahaa :look:
