Inquiry Regarding the Hinge Shape of Oakley Minute 1.0 Gen 2

[NeotericNick]

Because not every iteration of model is documented. Of those years nearly every model had small tweeks made throughout production.

Gen 3 is just a subset of gen 2. Gen 1 and 2 are completly different frames

That makes sense. Unfortunately on O-Review just show the Gen 2 picture for this model which is the Pearl White Black Iridium, that’s why I was a little confused.

So “Gen 3” is more like a “facelift” than a new generation, if we are comparing it to cars LOL.

No problem.

In answer to your question, I think I do own a 3rd Generation Minute, but for the moment am unsure. Can check, but seems you're happy with the info?

I’m happy with the information, however I would just like to see a 3rd gen box. I got one but I’m not 100% sure if it matches my Minute. I think so because they are from 2003 instead of my other one of 2000.

They are real but they’ve changed the material to be less likely to snap but by doing so they feel a lot worse on your head and do feel like cheaper knock of Oakleys. There is only a few colours of these and it’s mainly for re released colours leading up to the gen 2s. I’ve owned maybe 20 minutes and only 3 of them are the gen 3s
