Oakley ellipse 50th box set with grips and coin

[Corrosivehitman]

Hi guys, I've searched the forum but can't seem to find any real details.
Does anyone know how many colourways were produced and in what quantities.

 

[LetsGoBrandon]

3 different colorways were released.

One given to employees which is Pacific Blue.
Second would be the matte gray with gold lens given to enthusiasts.
Third would be the Midas fleck gold with gold lens given to athletes and MVPs.

I anticipate there being only a hundred of the employee version, 300 of the enthusiast version, and 200 of the athlete version.

They came out with a numbered version which was limited to 99 of the enthusiast version and were sold in stores later

Thank you for the reply,
I have a set on the way, which i believe are the athletes version, as I was told they got them at the 50th Party.
We're the Athletes version numbered?
Is there anything else that would point to them being an athletes version?

Athletes version is the Midas Fleck with no S/N, gold coin, and gold grips. Most were signed and I heard one or two made it out without having a signature on it so if you find one of those then it is ultra rare, but the rest have been signed on the top.

I wont know about signature until it arrives, he didn't sent me a pic of the top of the box unfortunately

These are the only pictures I've been sent. Will keep you posted when they arrive.

Who were they signed by?

There's a employee version on the goodwill auction site sitting at $361 atm, not sure if that's reasonable or not. I think the MVP version is more eye catching than this one but then again I have no clue what those go for either...

I think the stars may have aligned for me, as they are my 50th pair of Oakley, I managed to get them for £200

Who were they signed by?

They were signed by the recipient. As they haden them out, they made you sign it if you received it. Some sigs were subtle, some were extravagant. Most just sharpied out their name in black
