Jacques Marie Mage (JMM) - Sunglasses and Frames…

[pechelman]

Depends what you're looking for and what you're expecting @Mizmazzle . Personally, knowing the limitations and what I wanted from this pair, they're great and I'd buy them again tomorrow.

Know that most of them wont activate inside a car since the windows will block most of the UV which darkens the lens unless you get the "XtraActive" or one other model they make which is always dark and polarized. I wish the XtraActive's came in more colors and be aware those lighten more slowly and will remain like ~5-10% tinted (which I personally like).

The Generation 8's on the ones above get plenty dark to use as regular sunglasses when walking around outside, darken fast, and lighten pretty quick. The benefit I think almost no one talks about is that you'll never need to find a pocket, carry a case, or forget your sunglasses somewhere, because you can just leave them on your face.

Most likely, you wont be able to sell all of your sunglasses and just use a transition lens pair though. I think a lot of people expect or want them to do this and are disappointed. ymmv

@pechelman @Mizmazzle super appreciate this discussion.
I’m going to purchase a set of Clear and anti-glare Zeiss clear lenses… have yet to decide which frame they will go in.
Apparently Zeiss makes a clear lens that blocks a bunch of UV. TBD how my fair colored eyes can tolerated no tint while outdoors.
I’m planning to use these on the motorcycle. Early AM and day into night.
Will report back my findings.

Does anyone know wich dealan this is?

[pechelman]

There should be an alpha code on the temple that can tell you what it is after a quick lookup on Google. Should be something like JMMDXX.

[A Former User]

@pechelman thanks for the tip on the alpha code! Thought eclipse first but that one has more brownish glass.. this one looks to have more black/grey glass can’t find it haha! But then again i’m quite new to JMM

[pechelman]

It might be one of the many permutations of a color they call Noir. I think they're up to 8 now?

[A Former User]

Found! Bloodstone it is.. thanks for helping @pechelman

[Kasi]

[Jcaz6996]

@Heavy_blue I have the Dealan Bloodstone there are beauty’s mate..

[sabergirl]

Watch out for fake Dealans and other popular models, @Heavy_blue . They are pretty easy to spot, especially as they often say “mancrafted” in Japan on the arm.

[A Former User]

@sabergirl should say handcrafted right?

[sabergirl]

Yes.
