Nice let’s see some fit pictures

Dropped them off at the optician today to get dark blue sunglasses lenses with strength (prescription) installed. Decided that dark blue with 85% tint level is the best for every day and holiday purposes. Will post a photo of them when they're back. In two weeks that is....

Saw this on reddit and made me think of myself when I tries on Enzos.

received a new pair today
the Glenn Gould Fugue in black
awesome pair and the blue case is very special. And , what is really super special, there’s a record included If I understand it right, it’s the masterpiece from Gould who is or was a pianist and was famous for his Bach interpretations.
here they are

@Daniel-San those are sick including the packaging. The album with his 1955 and 1981 performances is in my library. Love me some Bach.

@mclaincausey

@Daniel-San did these frames comes with those records as part of the packaging?? That's pretty rad! Now, how can I find some frames that come with that IH Germany party flannel!!??

[will6er]

@cityofdelusion Nice. Not to sound stupid but is there a risk they damage the frames when they refit lenses?

[Daniel San]

@Mizmazzle
yes the record is included
what size do you need mate ? can keep my eyes open for one of the Hamburg UHF

[Mizmazzle]

@will6er I've had three pairs of JMMs fit with prescription lenses and never had an issue. They just pop out, so a skilled optical shop will have zero issues.

[cityofdelusion]

@will6er Not that I'm aware of, no. I'm sure opticians - especially experienced ones - know what they're doing since they handle different frames and lenses of various thicknesses and shapes everyday.

Basically, they have to pop out the demo/old lenses, cut the new lenses to the shape of the frame and pop those in again.

Edited to add for posterity that sometimes it may be necessary for them to heat the acetate to fit the lenses easier/better.

@Daniel-San

I got a record to for the Johnny Cash.
It up to the seller to give you one

I got mine from Seens because they became friends with me.

[cityofdelusion]

I'm convinced that Ichikawa is the absolute perfect style (for my face). Love the blue lenses on these, too. Here's hopefully a better photo than the one I posted before.

bought a second pair of Earl as I really love to wear them . Model is called Earl Empire and has great rosé/ red glasses. only 300 made , guess it’s the rarest version of the Earls.

It’s a JMM Party w/ @Mizmazzle and our better halves!

[louisbosco]

all this temptation is killing me. just held back on getting another in Japan a couple weeks back...

[VoodooRay]

Here’s my collection.. the GT-R in reserve on the top right just arrived today - this year’s pair. Really happy with them, have been looking for the ideal pair if titanium frames for a few years and these seem to fit the bill.
