That's simply great!The polished frame fits perfectly with the unearthly grace of the x metals,and makes every frame truly glow,not just shine.Works well with every lens,since it's bright itself,but the best colorway is the polished/black penny,which unfortunately I couldn't have since it's very small on me.However,I have it on a juliet and it's very nice when compared with the fire lenses.It's that one frame I don't mind that doesn't have serial number since it shines so much,that draws all the looks on it rather than the serial number.It is THAT good!!!!!!!

Penny, Romeo 2.0 or Juliet, the Polished frame delivers! Good reviews on here already, but there are two great problems with overusing and underusing them. Using them everyday for a few years will lead to scratches... period. They will still look great from a distance, but upon closer inspection they really show. This being said, they really are easy to scratch. Even taking them in and out of the microfiber bag repeatedly will begin to tax the sides/arms/nose of the frames. The other problem is underuse (especially in cold climates). If you leave the frames for a prolonged period, like I did with one of my Penny's (2 years in a colder/wetter than average climate) you will see discoloration happen in a much faster time period than normal... and you cannot just use a polishing cloth to take the oxidized color out. However, these are more extreme cases and for the average Oakley user, these frames are not for the everyday.

They are the show stoppers of the Juliet Frames, they look great with any lens, they are also much "softer" than my X-Metal frame which makes swapping lenses easier (I can't remove the lenses from my X-Metal frames because it's is way too rigid!) of and what really drives the Polished Juliet frames home...HAMMER STEMS (which are not available on any other Juliet frame)

The Polished frame option is great in a lot of aspects. It looks stylish, attracts a lot of attention and goes great with a all lens colors. The downside of the polished frame is the problem with handling it: just by touching it with your fingers they become greasy and matt. The thing I am scared of is that the frame might scratch a lot when handled a lot. It would be a waste to see it all scratched up, so this one needs a lot of lovin'.
The best thing about this frame option in the Juliet is of course: Hammer earstems! Can't go wrong with those!

Just got myself a new pair of Polished Frame Juliets and I love them. Aesthetically, I think the polished frame looks far better than the rest. Sure, its flashy but isn't that the reason you get yourself a pair of Juliets (apart from the workmanship but that doesn't depend on the frame color). My advice would definately be to go with polished frames. They simply look better and more expensive.

Its clean, it shines... well it blings... how can't anyone don't like some bling, gold, platinium and of course a x-metal polished frame! :)
but now in seriously...
The polished and carbon frames are my favorites... polished looks like something expensive and fits really well on light color lens (emerald slate, fire, gold, vr50 and many other) while the carbon fits great on dark lens like (black, ice, red ruby (1st gen), and others) but of course we have exceptions like a polished looks great with ICE lens and carbon looks amazing with TI clear... Thats all about you... :)

You can never go wrong with a Polished frame, be it on a Juliet, Romeo II, or Penny. They are flashy and look great when paired with ANY lens color/type. The polished Juliet have the added benefit of hammer earstems which makes them stand even more. I can not say enough good things about this frame. Possibly the best X-Metal frame ever!

X-Metal polished to a mirror finish. This color really shows the sculpted details of the frame and goes well with any lens option.

I will give them 5 star, look really nice exspecially with fire lens. It's very suitable for shinny lens.

This is very stylish. The polished juliet frames look so clean and smooth. They top it off with the hammer ear stems. Very nice frame.
