Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…

[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.

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!

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

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.

[Daniel San]

@VoodooRay
got mine today too
fantastic
will post some pics tomorrow!
maybe I get the GT-R in rover too

[VoodooRay]

@Daniel-San
Ah nice 1! It was a toss up between the rover and reserve. How do you like them compared to the Earl? I tried the Earl first but they were a bit tight on my fat head.

[Daniel San]

@VoodooRay
the Earls are definitely lighter and fit me great.
The GT-R feels more massive but not in a negative way. What’s a bit sad about them is that the acetate is not transparent like it’s on the rover’s, which I really like .

[Daniel San]

on the way to work

[VoodooRay]

@Daniel-San mine’s exactly the same, I think it’s the acetate paddles on the temples that stop them from folding completely.. they look great tho!

[Daniel San]

@VoodooRay
had a closer look this morning and yes you’re right. guess that’s why they come in the bigger box . They are very comfortable to wear , very cool

[Inorganic]

@SourPower yo - what model is the top pair in this pile of gems?

[SourPower]

@Inorganic Fontainebleau in "Aubergine"

[Inorganic]

@SourPower very nice...thanks

[cityofdelusion]

Does anyone have any on-face photos of a pair of JMM in the colorway "Smoke fade"? Can't find almost any example...
