I have 3 pairs of JMM (in Christmas 2022 I had none) and I’m going to swap the lenses in all 3 because I don’t love them.

Dealan argyle: thinking of a light brown, don’t like the pinkish/purplish lenses.

Plaza beluga: I kinda like the reddish stock ones but they are too dark, darker in person than in the pics. Will prob go with a light yellow.

Fellini noir: also too dark; usually prefer warmer colours but those usually go better with gold hardware and these have silver one so going to put some photocromic (is that what you guys here call transitions? sorry not a native speaker and don’t know the glasses jargon) black lenses.

Sounds reasonable?
Can I buy the Plaza beluga lense from you?

Funny you say that, just yesterday I went to the store to get the lenses swapped and in the last minute I decided to leave the Plaza as they are, at least for now. The Dealans and Fellinis are getting their lenses swapped as I mentioned in the post though.

If I change my mind re. the Plazas I'll let you know.

All good. What would you say with regards to the sizing between plaza Fellini and Dealan? I have Dealan and plaza. Dealan fit me perfectly but the nose bridge and the overall width of plaza is a bit too wide. Interested in Fellini but not sure if it will be too big compare to Dealan.

I'd say that Dealan and Fellini are comparable fit wise. Fellini are just a bit wider, but very balanced and in the medium range. Almost a safe bet, the most people look good with Fellini.

I’ve got a small/narrow face and I haven’t noticed much difference in terms of size across the three models, they all seem to fit me decently (or so I hope!).

They are notorious for photoshopping out that stupid pin instead of just you know not making it that way
I share your frustration regarding this issue, but I think your assertion about the photoshopping is a little off the mark. Here are 7 examples of stock JMM photos all showing the Taos wirecore with said pin hole. Sunkiss, Bloodstone, Volvox, Eclipse, Army, Rover and Hickory.

They do it all the time bro. Here’s a Zeph 47 for example

I’ve seen this on Enzos, Ascaris, Dealans, and Taos…. They used to do it a lot more
