      I have a pair of Maui Jim Sunnies that are similar to your Dita's @Appfaff and I love them….

        @Giles - yep, there it is! Just spoke to my optometrists office and they can custom cut essentially any polarized lens I want for them.. Your MJs make a good point for a blue tint. Are those a grey lens with blue mirror, aka deep sea lens?

        Don't know if I want to go grey (deep water, high sun) or an amber (Shallow water/Moderate sun) base with a green tint…

          They are a deep water Polariser (though I use them in shallow water in UK).  In the tropics in shallow water I always use an Amber polariser.

          They are these:

          in light grey crystal

          I have another pair of Maui Jim with same lens, which I bought for a steal off Ebay.  I don't go out onto the water in the tropics without a spare pair of glasses.  I did once, in Oman and the wind whipped them off my face early in the day, I had the most miserable days fishing, never again…...

            I have the Velzylyland in crystal too.  😃  The Maui Jim super-thin glass polarized lenses are unrivaled. I wish they were available for 3rd party frames.

                  @Appfaff stick in a set of Transitions lenses, and then they can be both.

                  Actually, their Driver's lenses look interesting. They vary between yellow and bronze depending on the conditions. I don't think that they go completely clear.

                    And I am still waiting for a replacement pair of Maui Jims (remember @Giles you borrowed mine for a fishing trip and lost them?)

                    I have a long memory  😃

                        Never heard of the brand before but just picked up a prescription pair! Decent price and plenty of frame styles.

                        The devil is in the detail..

                                  I took a gamble and ordered up the Jacques Marie Mage Clark in white from Matches Fashion. (Free shipping to Australia and free returns meant it wasn't too much of a risk.)

                                  I'm going to get the lenses replaced with a set of Essilor Style Mirrors in blue, made up in my prescription.

                                    Does anyone else wear Oliver People’s? Pretty much the only frames I’ve worn for the last decade.

                                        The Dita Statesman Three is still my go-to pair.  I got them in black and tortoise.  The materials and craftsmanship are just outstanding.

                                          Just picked up the JMM Hemmings in the shade color. Liked them so much I got the NOIR and the Havana on preorder. These glasses are truly a work of art.
