I bought many Oakley items from that seller, Sports Plus. Good prices. A Sandbag for $70, Split Crater for $30. He hasn't been on ebay for a year or so though so don't worry.

Emerald Timebomb... i saw it for sale a long time ago for 400 bucks i should have bought it but i didn't.

Are there any sites or stores that still carry the Emerald timebomb? It looks pretty decent.

$400 for a Timebomb!? deal of the century! ^_^ sorry you missed out... :(

i think next to the Carbon Fiber version, the Emerald looks really great.

Wow, that's really nice.

The Emerald Timebomb was a Sunglass Hut exclusive when Emerald Iridium was exclusive to them. I don't know if they still carry it or or even if Oakley does.

hey Phil, do you know if SGH still officially sells Oakley watches? i know their website still has a few, but none of the stores in my area carries them, not even the cheaper Performance ones. all they have are Arnette, Guess, Fossil, Skagem, etc...

W.B. Ng (bong - 10/25/2004 10:46:19 AM)

Unless it's a combo store or very high volume SGH they will only carry the above brands you mentioned. They do sell Oakley watches at their Watch Station and Watch World locations.

Phil Barket (kingphilbert - 10/25/2004 11:18:24 AM)

Emerald time bomb is still available code is 10-011
most good retailers can order it for you.

SGH are still selling Oakley Watches at most of their stores in the UK. Judge and GMT should be in their stores before Christmas

I was talking to the manager of my neighborhood SGH, and he said he stopped keeping Oakley watches in stock because they end up sitting on the shelf, and getting damaged. Seems as though lots of people will ask to try on a Timebomb (with no intention of buying it) and ding them up. Then the store has to add them to their "damage" pile and take a hit in profits.

i'd like to see someone ding up a timebomb while trying it on... i might just kill them

John Heins (john - 10/25/2004 4:03:31 PM)

yeah, he says they have that problem pretty frequently with all of their merch. I tried on a Juliet, and it had a nice scratch on it. Some people...

The worst !!! Your wanting to try on a pair of really nice Oakleys, and everyones fingerprints are on them. Ask the clerk to clean them, Yea!! right!!
You do the cleaning yourself.
I always ask for a new pair in the box. Especially when Im very sure, I will be buying them.
And how bout Oakley knowledge when your in the store looking.
Its frightful at best. No one know Oakleys like the people in the O stores/vaults (maybe). Most of the time. Girl working at Hollywood/Highland was a ditz.

oh, this is a new thread now. discussions about clueless salespeople go in "the WORST!", down in off-topic

John Heins (john - 10/25/2004 6:19:58 PM)
------------------------------------------------------------

d'uh... i forgot to mention Watch Station. but anyway, i don't recall seeing any Oakley watches there either. if i have time tomorrow i'll browse around, maybe try on a Judge if they have...

look on eBay for the emerald, i saw one today, no box though, forgot to copy the url, will do later if i get chance

I know this is an old thread. But I saw there was a square wire 2.0/ square wire 2.0 30mm comparison pic here. I am sure that I have a Black Chrome square wire 2.0 here. I also have a lens set (ice iridium) that says square wire 2.0, but I don't get them to fit in the frames. Too big, so I am sure they are 30mm...

However it would be cool if there was a comparison pic here to see how much it differs from each other.

Also maybe someone would trade a set of new 2.0 ice lenses for some new 2.0 30mm ice lenses?

If I ever get out of the office, I'll try to get you a photo with the two side by side.

That would be awesome :)
