[MENTION=116344]ndrew19[/MENTION] it does affect the accuracy of your automatic watches. Its such a weak magnetic field,but for a long times it can cause some trouble. Or u could just buy a demagnetizer to fix the problem when it occurred.

Not to worry. I'll wear it on my other hand then. Thanks for the heads up [emoji16]

It Looks really great mate. Don't know if i should order from old cobbler or tk fashion..
Did the initials cost you extra?

I went with Cobbler,
Yeah initials were $10, you have to buy them on a separate listing from his store.
He posted with China Post and it still only took 12 days to arrive from date of order.

Hey!

Does anyone know of any AE shops selling glasses? With lenses!

I found the store: http://www.aliexpress.com/store/1243375 here on this thread and tried to contact the seller without any responses in about two weeks. Looking for Thom Browne and Oliver People glasses!

Any help would be much appreciated :)

I co
That's where I bought my oliver people with prescription lenses. Great service and quality. Just write them again.

Is it only me that is wary of buying stuff like progressive lens, food or anything else sensitive from China?

I mean this is a place where even eggs and milk powder can be fake and people get poisoned eating those and while food is not the best analogy to use to compare to lens, but you get my drift. I am just a tad wary to get started on lens and sunglasses too.

Maybe it is just me, but anyone wanna share your experiences with the lenses?

The machines they use to make the lenses are probably the same (if not better) than the ones used here. Its all just numbers plugged into a machine that makes the lense.

The thing you would most need to worry about is UV protection, you can guarantee your Ray Ban's bought here have UV protection in the lenses....but can you guarantee the Chinese reps have the same coating??...on the more expensive ones sure, but still...

I know, £105 for Yeezy's. Eva and Jessie do these for £55 (ish) so he's just sticking 50% on. Wonder if he follows this thread as it seems the stone island jumpers we were discussing around christmas are now stocked!

Was thinking exactly the same, and Goyard Card Holders. Quite a random mix of thinks if it's just a coincidence
