Opinions: Marchon Airlock 760/8 rimless titanium frame

**GoodAsGold** · 01-28-2006, 03:08 AM

Is anyone familiar with the Marchon Airlock model 760/8 rimless frame? I know they need to have a hi-index or polycarb lens. I would go with a Varilux Thin and Lite 1.60. Today I was looking at frames at a neighborhood optical shop with the intentions of looking at regular frames. I'm just getting ideas to take back to the optician I plan to have fit me. The receptionist was wearing the above model Airlocks and really likes them. She let me try them on. NOT BAD! I swore I would never wear a rimless, but these looked and felt nice. Does anyone have any opinions on these frames? It's a Beta Titanium material.

I think they're great frames but must be taken care of very well. You might want to consider Trivex or high index in the frames. But your Optician will know whats best.

If I were to get them, they would be in addition to ones with full frames. I would also definitely have a hi-index lens.

Thanks!
