Jigawatt regular lineup...

Has anyone else had this problem? I test drove Matte Sand / Goldenrod / Blaze for the first time today and noticed several areas of glare in my vision from both lenses. This example is far worse than the one which presented itself in the Matte Storm / Shadow / Amethyst, and noticed it right away. I drove Gloss White / Black / Glacier all day yesterday, and it's perfect. My Gloss Black / White / Obsidian pairs are perfect, too. I posted before that it looks like microabrasions, though it looks more like microfractures. As one user pointed out, he has seen this before after swapping lenses in the past due to too tight a fit, so microfractures makes perfect sense in that case. But these are straight from the factory and first time out of the box. You can see the glare while wearing them, but can't see what's causing said glare with the naked eye during examination. Only when shining a powerful light at the right angle can you identify what's causing the glare.

Yeah looks like stress fractures from lens insertion. Probably came from the factory that way (I guess someone had to put the lenses in the frame?). I would reach out to the company, maybe they will help you out. I’ve had this on Oakley lenses and it is noticeable when wearing them.

Never seen this issue before, and I have quite a collection myself. Though I've given up on Oakley years ago, I am now fully committed to M-Experiment. It has to be someone in the factory improperly installing the lenses. Not gently going around in the right order, but forcefully trying to push them in all at once until they click. That's the only thing I can think of. I reached out to M-Experiment. Chatted with Chris again, as I last had a chat with him on Monday about the same issue regarding the Amethyst lenses in my Matte Storm. I'm going to ship both defective pairs of lenses back to them so they can further inspect and hopefully get to the bottom of it. Once again, exceptional Customer Service. I'm waiting on Gold Plasmachromatic Polarized lenses to restock, because I'm not too crazy about Blaze. And I think Gold would look much more at home in the Matte Sand / Goldenrod combo anyway. That is if I can secure a pair or two before they sell out again...
 
Yeah down to these. There were 4 Matte Blue last night - 3 of the black and brick

Gonna send back my extra Matte Sand / GoldenRod #39 as well as my White Gloss/ Black #38

Decided to try a Brick Red and a Matte Black/Storn instead. The other two were doubles and the more I think of these the more I realize it’s really not necessary for me to keep doubles especially when they will not be limited.

I’d rather try ALL the colors.

Yeah well I see others trying to sell doubles and I think the demand here is done since we all purchased them all already LOL. I am thinking to even send back my sky and chocolate doubles even though I love them it may be my last chance to get my $$ back out of these.

You won’t get serial numbered pairs in the future! That makes them special in a limited way!

I’m curious, you say this but aren’t you selling numbered Jigawatts? I’m just curious why and are you selling them below MSRP??
