      @Appfaff I was wrong, the model I like is the Dita Insider-Two. This pair has the clear frame, which I prefer to the ones I saw in black / clear, and has exposed selvedge screws. 🙂

          Frame prices are ridiculous.

              @steelworker if prices are bad where you are, you should see what they're like in Australia! :o

              @Giles you're leaving yourself open to comments about your appearance in general there. 😃

              I'm probably not the best person to make suggestions about which spectacles to go for, as my guideline is choose the craziest pair that suits you. But I think that with something like the Dita Brixa, you'd have to see how they sit on your face, and then just roll with the look if it's workable. I felt as though my Kuboraum pair were wearing me for the first few weeks I had them.

                  I quite like those - I love rounded frames, but being as my face is somewhat Round, they exacerbate my appearance (in a bad way), so I stick to more square and rectangular frames.

                        Dita Insider-Two

                        After looking at your post again on IG three times, I snagged some Insider Ones.  My luck with finding NIB gear from forum friends has been on point lately. Should have them early next week and hopefully able to get lenses made before we leave for holiday

                          Those are really nice, I reacently looked at a similar Model at Masunaga

                          http://www.masunaga1905.com/en/product/858

                          My go to german made Brand Lunor does some Acetate and Metal Mix Glasses too but the engraving on the japanese Models is really nice and kind of unique.

                            Got my lenses installed in my Insiders and really dig them. A lot different than I would normally go, but definitely something fun to have in the rotation.

                            Now I have my eyes on the Buckeye in Amber/White Gold for my 2018 optical purchase.

                            Anyone have a pair and could post up pics?  Sadly, I am quite a different size And shape than their model on he website [emoji23]

                                  Went and tried on some new glasses yesterday.

                                  Thoughts?

                                  I have my favorite, my wife has hers, and I know which ones look terrible but wanted to share.

                                      First and last are my favorite. Middle two work, but IMHO are not my favorite in comparison.

                                      The first one is more modern (definitely works for you) and the last one has more of a retro vibe (also definitely works for you and your style).

                                      You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.

                                          Thanks for the feedback gents - I’m leaning towards these tho…

                                          The Buckeye were too “flimsy” for me to really feel comfortable buying. And the Statesman, well... my wife said “you’d look like a fat Anderson Cooper” in them... which is entirely Accurate.

                                            Those ones will definitely suit you well. I totally feel you on not wanting “flimsy” frames…
