Such a lovely subtle shade of grey. The arrowhead silver pins were more heavily oxidised, so that I had to use Cape Cod.

love these. I own #389 but replaced the lenses with a jet black. One of my most worn pairs.

I got denied by costco recently trying to put lenses into some Torino bc apparently they don't work with thick acetate anymore. I was about to put some in my Vascos, but I realized a blue gradient lens would work better.

I guess I have to go to one of the online places, or maybe try somewhere in NYC, hopefully inexpensive.

I would never use Costco for jmm frames (I’d use jmm dealers only but would consider an optical shop I trusted). That said, “we don’t work with thick acetate” is maybe one of the weirder excuses as lenses have nothing to do with the thickness of the acetate. If anything, they would be less likely to break thick acetate so they should actually be more cautious with ultra thin acetate.
