Oakley Frank FMJ gathering

All 3 of those C6 that I brought to the Texas Meetup are the original First C6 Prototypes directly obtained from Neil Ferrier, who Engineered and Designed the entire Elite Line for Oakley including the C6. They are the only 3 pairs that have "Prototype" in the Unobtainium Earsocks. I also have Livestrong C6 #1 of 5 in the Museum as well.

In the pictures, the first 4 are of C6 Livestrong #1 of 5, and the last Picture is of the 3 Prototypes, along with their partially Machined Aluminum Front, Machined but not Polished Aluminum Front, and the C6 SLA Prototype. Cheers!

Are you absolutely positive that those are the "only" 3 pairs having the word "Prototype" on the unobtanium?

I can only go by the word of the Engineer, Neil Ferrier, who created them, but he personally stamped it in there himself, so that is the only word I have to go on. That is about as Legit as I could get. I've never seen any others that do all of these years since the C Six was created. The pair that Del Matticks has is a Pre-Production pair, as is the pair that JV Fule has of the Carbon, it is a Pre-Production pair (his has no serial). Neil Ferrier personally told me these were the 3 original Prototypes, as he sold them to me.

Anyway, I will be happy to ask him the next time I speak with him!

Understood. True that you can go only by what you're told.

There just happens to be more. ;)

Had mine for a while.
