Started out as an amateur bike racer in California, jealous of all my competitors who could wear M-Frames when I couldn't, because I needed Rx lenses. Finally got M-Frames with Black Iridium Heater Rx lenses when Oakley started offering them, then got Sub-Zeros with Red Iridium Rx lenses, and have been wearing Oakley ever since.

I was expecting the site to be starting over from scratch,
so I'm amazed to see how much content has been restored!
Thanks, Dann, for putting in all the hard work!

Got my t-shirts today. They look great! The digital camo is impressive, and the green tie-dye looks dark and mysterious. Very nice!
Thanks Dann!

I am already down for a burnt orange XL.
I would like to add to that:
an XL Sand Digital +
an XL Forest Tie Dye +
an XL Lime Green
for a total of four shirts.

I'd get two XL, one plain burnt orange and one with the pattern.

Not sure about spare parts, but from what I've seen XMetalWorkshop can repair just about any kind of X-metal frame damage. They have a FB page:
https://www.facebook.com/xmetalworkshop
I have purchased small parts from them, and my experience is that their parts are top-quality, shipping is fast, service is excellent.

Although this thread is titled "2016 Olympic Green Fade Collection", there is no Olympic branding on the box, bag, frames, or lenses of any of the glasses in the Green Fade Collection.
Bummer.

I talked to the optician at my local Oakley Store today about ordering prescription lenses for X-Metal frames.
In the USA, Oakley will make Rx lenses for Romeo, Juliet, XX, and XSquared.

Screws on the nose pad mounts are a sure sign of a fake E Wire.

Sadly, it is true that Oakley refuses to make Rx lenses for Mars frames.
The Mars I own were originally sold by Oakley as ophthalmic frames, so it is especially ironic that Oakley now won't put Rx lenses in them.
I had Fuse make and install my Mars' Rx lenses:

Here's the back of the watch that's on eBay.
Check out the size, shape, spacing, and background of the red letters spelling "OAKLEY" on the rotor, and
compare the diameter and the recessed depth of the various screws

Compare the photos in this eBay listing for a Time Bomb II with the photos at the beginning of this thread.
Any similarities?

Does anybody know the SKU for the Kill Switch Heritage Edition Bezel?
My local Oakley Store couldn't find the bezel in their system when they searched for it by name.

This looks like all the "guaranteed stainless steel" stuff in my tackle box ...
The finish looks like it has a rough-textured surface, but if you run your finger along it, does it actually feel textured? Or does it feel smooth thanks to the clear?

Not sure how to upload photos, but my "icon" is the Red Iridium Sub-Zero Rx, with cracks in the shield above each Rx insert (otherwise, I'd be wearing them)
