lots of variation indeed. ken's lenses look almost like fire to me. at first glance it'd be easy to mix the two up

very nice josh.. now look what i saw online. about rubbies.

It's very difficult to capture the true color of the Ruby Lens with a camera, since the color changes with lighting conditions and camera angles. We tried our very best to accomplish this by including a comparison photo and this description. The darkness of your lens depends on which type you purchase, A B C or D, with A being the darkest (and most expensive) and D being the lightest. F is the lightest, Fire looking Ruby not worthy to even be called Ruby, and we don't sell them.

Color A - Unusually Dark, Very Rare, Deep Dark Purplish Red. Almost like +Red. We've never seen Juliet Ruby lens this dark, and we have seen lots of Juliet Rubys, so this color may only exist for Penny Ruby lenses, but only once in a blue moon...
Color B - Equivalent to Darkest Juliet Ruby Lens, same as C with more pink, less yellow
Color C - Same as B, but with less pinkish and more yellow toward the ends
Color D - Slightly redder and darker than Fire lenses

Ok This has probably been covered but is Oakley offering Ruby MD lenses in OCE (OT- as well as Ice Canteen Lenses)..I was told last week "Yes" then called on payday to order and was told RUBY is permanently discontinued and if they did something like that it'd be next year if at all ..I called again and was told an email addressed this for CS -No Ruby for MD...does anyone have any info and please know I am not blaming CS They struggled with their computer system and talked to supervisors for me and were outstanding..nothing against the O I just wonder what would have happened if I ordered them on that first call.

I know it has been a while since I acquired these ruby lenses (back in Jan) and put them into a Gen2 Plasma frame I bought at the vault for $150 and added some red rubber (Thanks to Fin7), but today I was able to get a good pic of them...Love em...

Wild Guess: Does it have something to do with the purple "O" on the sides?

I can hardly count myself among the ruby elite - what without any ruby xmetals to my name. But here are my collection of rubys as it stands:

does anyone know whats used to coat the lenses of binoculars?

i was in the army surplus shop and they were displayed as 'ruby coated' but they were a flat uniform red right across the lens, i know they won't be oakley, but if they can coat any other material, they could be cut for customs.

i actually prefer the full red colour to the red fading to yellow etc etc like o's ruby lenses
