I don't have a pic taken of them together.

But I typically wear a pair of Tom Ford sunglasses.
I have Ray Bans for the beach, but prefer the Ford in any other situation

In certain lights the patina of the classic Sub blue sunburst dial has a rich purple hue. Thats one of those elements that can only be developed with time.

This thread is nothing. Hang out on the forum for a few years and this topic will seem significant and informative compared to others.

Relax. We all have the same exact watches so what else is there to talk about?

Anytime someone makes a thread about something too different they get flamed to death and the mods close the thread. Anything controversial gets locked.

This is a safe threads.

agreed. And I have to admit that after glancing at another Ticks and Kicks, W-R-U-W thread, steering wheels, does your car match thread, Cleaning your watch thread or which one should I buy thread....... I genuinely was interested what the classy, well dressed, stylish members of TRF wore for sunglasses. Maybe there was a thread from mid-2016 but I figured you guys love your watches and love taking pictures of them Just Tom, Oat Willy and Mystro. As I mention in the original post in Mississippi "outdoor sports" glasses are what most ppl wear. I figured what better place than here to have an expanded pool of diverse interests and heck just different options than right here!?

I would love to see a pair that I cant live without!

How do you like the Blue Hawaiis? I've been debating getting another pair of MJs.
