Best Juliet ice/blue lenses?

[nabro6]

Just got my first pair of Juliet's. Polished 4th gen (no serial number) with Hammerstems. They came with fire polarized lenses that are in perfect condition, so I want to preserve them. Was thinking about getting ice blue aftermarket lenses and see there's some options between linegear, ikon, rêvant etc.
Does anyone have some experience and recommendations for the best model? I see linegear has like 4-5 different blues..
Thanks

Just saw the nb10 was mentioned in another thread. I'll look into those

Saxe Blue are very similar to oakley's sapphires. I've got both of them, I can send a pic of them next to each other once I get back home- if you'd like ;]

Yes please ! I'm afraid of getting something too dark or too light

Will do but it'll take few more hours.

Yellow RJs and mars both have oakley sapphire prizm polars installed, the OTTs have linegear saxe blue. When you look at them I'd say they are pretty much indistinguishable. I think you should visit O store and check them out if you have one near you. If you're not a purist go for LG.

Can't speak for regular sapphires since looking through them is probably way different then through prizms. They should appear the same from the outside though. Hope this will help you out a bit.

Honestly I can't really tell the difference.. thanks, I think I'm happy to go for any then

Yeah they are really really close. Personally I'l wanted to with LG cause they're way more affordable. Only reason I went with oakleys was that I got $20 donors so just couldn't pass by. I use them for cycling and now I know that prizm is far more superior to any other lens I've had therefore my next choice for RJs will probably be prizm polars again. When it comes to x metals I don't think it's that much important to pursue either prizm or polars but that's just my opinion.
