That one is lovely, but it's very similar to the one that I already have from JMM (came with my Yves):

Dang, good eyes! I totally missed that!
NEXT!
Dude I’d be PISSED if I ordered a case and it looked like that.
Also check out Emil Erwin’s glasses cases, I have one in cordovan and it is beautiful.

The local Jacques Marie Mage
pusherdealer had a trunk show yesterday to show off the new range, and since I desperately need a new pair of spectacles, I went along…The Percier is coming soon in vermilion, or red, and I really like it in this colour, which is cooler than @louisbosco's pair!
My favourite JMM style was the Ringo, but they sold out everywhere last year and then disappeared from the catalogue. They're bringing out the mark two version, which the rep said was more robust than the original. There are also some new details, such as a coin edge around the rim of the lens.
I'm currently between the Percier and Ringo 2, but I keep on thinking, "What would @Kasi do?" And that suggests buying both. Plus several more styles just because.
Another new style is the Hartana, which is a hybrid of the Harcourt and Fontana. They look good, but the top of the rim doesn't quite sit along my eyebrows properly.
The Arp is a new prescription model, and in retrospect I quite like it. Good See Co have a red model too…
Then there's the Zephirim, but I prefer the shape of the Percier.
On the shades front, there's a lilac colour coming, which is really nice. I saw it on the Ascari and Dealan.
The Ascari is also coming in a mint green.

When I go for my JMM’sThe first question is I ask my self
how I feel them in them and looking… that’s very important otherwise it’s a waste money buying them.Looking at them photos
Percier is the winner, but make sure you get the colour right.
Make you look trendy. Design for your face.
That’s why what your doing trying them on first is the best way to go
As I always will says buying online is a gamble
-
One of the issues that I have is that I've got a -6 power in my right eye, so keeping the lenses small helps them from getting too thick. I think that the Percier will be OK, but I'll check before ordering.
And, yes, buying online is fraught. I really like the new Henri, but I'd want to try it before committing.

@Graeme not sure I can pull of red for Perriers
wear the Percier in vermilion. They look really good on you!!
