About Bloodstone: frankly don't understand these several variations on black, the more this one appears "just" black outside. But certainly there will be also fans.
Totally agree.
I think this is just JMM’s way of getting around the limitations of limited editions. Black is always likely to be among the most popular colour, so instead of having a not-very-limited run of say 1000 Dealans in ‘black’ they can have five ‘limited edition’ runs of 200 each in ‘ebony’, ‘bloodstone’, ‘obsidian’, ‘marquina’, ‘noir’ etc. I chuckle at the ever more creative ways they attempt to come up with a more elaborate way to describe black!

Don’t forget ‘beluga’ or ‘titan’.

"Midnight" of course. Or rather "Minuit" (midnight in French)

ok story time.

so a couple months ago i bought a pair of enzos from mr.p and it was switched and baited with another pair of similar looking oliver peoples (or garrett leight i forgot) luckily mr.p did a full refund.

last nov, i was able to score a pair of fellini in eclipse via ssense private sale, guess what? after months of back and forth. it turns out usps uploaded a screenshot of a fake random signature saying it was signed from a wrong address. i am grateful ssense did also honor a refund but damn, i've been eyeing the fellini in eclipse for a while. in fact, i saved a spot for it in my case.

i don't see the fellini in eclipse is available now unfortunately. but the closest thing i see are 1) walker in eclipse 2) fellini in agar. quite torn in between both options. as i do like the detailing of the fellini but prefer black frames to fill that void. any thoughts would be appreciated.

Fellini Agar would perfectly fill that spot ;)

`ello!
Anyone was able to find a reliable optician in Europe for custom tint prescription lenses? Other than Zeiss which have some pre-defined catalogue colors (pretty expensive also), I don't know any.

Hey guys, anyone tried JMM Stellar (Evangeline Smyrniotaki collection)?

They look absolutely amazing in pictures.

Darkened OG lenses on my Camel Vendome came out ace. Just got them straight from the box and will take better pics later. Highly recommend for anyone who thinks like me that the Vendome Camel had way too light tints

How'd you darken the lenses? I have a Molino camel that I have dark brown polarized lenses in but sometimes I like the lighter fashion look and pop the originals back in. They are just too light though (compared to the Fellini agar lenses which are light too, but dark enough to not be ridiculous). Did you do it yourself or send it off somewhere?
