Oakley Juliet - 4th Gen Plasma

[Seabra233]

Been in the market for some Oakley Juliets and these showed up.
They need a bridge tune-up, socks look a bit sticky and on one of the lens was a scratch that is visible.

No coin or original box, comes with microbag.
Seller told me this box is from another model and it's only to send the glasses more secure.

Seller is asking 340€, what you guys think?

$390.00.....seems fair. Tell him he can keep the box.

not to contradict the man , but that seems on the high side for something that's going to need a full rebuild.

Is the nose bridge something you can do at home or do you need a special tool for those pins?

you need a special tool that you can get from Linegear japan and a lot of patience or members like @THE X-MAN or @zwc0442. you can mess up the nose bridge if you do it wrong.

Hello, I am not an expert, based on my recent search on this, it requires a specific tool (more like a small rack to hold the frame, see this link linegear tool) to help remove the pin, which is made by Linegear and other companys costing about 60 dollars. I think you can try to do it yourself with the common tools found in your garage, but you can easily damage the frame. For myself, I decided to spend money and let more professional people do it for me. Good luck!

Yeah probably the best ideas, do you know how long the nose coupler last?

unfortunately, I dont know.

they will last years but depends on a couple things. how much the flex coupler is stretched ( if you have a big head and not the right size stem spacers) or if you leave it in the sun or expose it to salt and harsh chemicals. It's rubber so....

I have pairs where I've never had them replaced. Granted I don't wear them everyday but that's a long time. They are pretty durable.
