New Metals and Question About Lens Color

I should Work at Oakley

Picked up a set of 3 fixer-uppers this past week: polished Juliet, plasma Juliet, and Romeo 2. Pretty good deal for all 3 so I’m happy with that. I know the polished frames have Ice iridium polarized. The lenses in the plasma pair are a completely different shade of blue. Can anyone confirm if these are blue iridium? Thanks all.

Hi friend,
you need to take pictures with no or a white background.
On that kitchen counter any ident. is impossible.
 
The Polished Juliet never came with Ice. BUT if you are saying they are polarized (tested?) they may have been swapped. From the pics it looks like the polished have Ice Irid. and the plasma has Blue Irid, what's the SNs?

They are etched polarized so I assume maybe they were swapped at some point. No serial on either pair unfortunately.
Here’s another pic with the lenses removed.

cool. Blue iridium never came in Pol. likely an early bake or just a really dark batch. commonly ice is lighter looking. the ones on the right are likely Blue Iridium. hard to distinguish between the two anyway unless you re looking through. if they are similar to look through besides the polarization, they are both ice.

Awesome. Thanks for the help!
