Moscot glasses?

About to pull the trigger on a pair of Moscot Lemtosh sunglasses. Saw them on the show Bloodline and wanted them immediately.

Anyone have a pair of Moscots and have some feedback? Well built? Good quality? Worth it?

I also like Persol. Have had a couple pairs.

Main reason I want these over another pair of Persols is it's a new brand I haven't owned, and also not made by Luxotica. All my other shades (Persol, Ray Ban, Oakley) are made by Luxotica.

Also can't seem to find this exact style from another brand.

Good quality but I personally prefer other brands such as Persol, Oliver Peoples, Garrett Leigh California, Mr. Leight - but it’s mostly from a style perspective.
Real Madrid, Miami Heat, New York Jets.

curious, what watches do you wear?

Was unaware of Garret Leight...looks good thanks.

Edit: after looking, I love the styles, but Garret Leight is not cheaper than Moscot...both around $300

Edit 2: just saw your question about watches. I just wear an Apple Watch these days.

Same look, far cheaper and still polarized lenses.

Yeah those do look good. Apparently they're an Australian brand but can be bought online from the states...good tip thanks.

Sadly, the quality is lacking with Moscot. They do look cool, but the quality is not there. For some reason i found the same issue with Dita too. I have the Moscot MILTZEN-TT SE SUN
46 / Matte Black/Gold and the issue is with the earpiece (sorry not sure what its actually called). They become loose after a month of wear. They are also not made in USA like you are lead to believe. They are designed in USA but made in China. I still wear them, but have found better quality in less expensive brands (maui jim, william painter, quay). They definitely do look nice though.

UPDATE: I got them

After looking around at other designer brands - stuck with the Moscots. Anything else that looked on the same level aesthetically was as much $ or more - and all the cheaper options didn't do it for me. Even Persols, which I love - nothing looks quite like these Lemtosh glasses.

My backup which I almost bought were these from Warby Parker for $95. Nice, but not the same.
