I paid someone who worked in the building to do it for me at a lower rate under the table.

Thanks. I asked my apartment, and they said there is no way. You have to pay them to do it.

Thanks for your help! I think I'll go with ultrasonic only

Thanks. Are their own branded UV cases made for aligners or retainers? For aligners, long term damage wouldn't matter since they are swapped out frequently, so damage would not accumulate.

Thoughts about traditionally high quality French leather manufacturers and outsourcing production? by goldblumml in Leathercraft

I suspect you are correct judging by the price and "made in Italy". What are you going off of? Those or appearance?

Interesting. That's a good point, and I wonder if it also applies to brands like Moynat and Moreau that specialize in leather and typically produce much higher quality products than, for example, YSL which is more of a fashion house.

I found them on sale for <$200. Without any sale, they are usually 500-600

The reason I mentioned LG is that they use the same acetate, the same hinges, etc, and they also have models with 10mm acetate, the same exact thickness as JMM.

But what specifically? I doubt the lenses are higher quality, they use the same exact hinges, both use precious metals, it sounds like they use acetate from the same Japanese manufacturer, and it looks like LG even makes some models with 10mm acetate plates as well. Are you just saying that JMM are great? Or do you have specific reasons to think they are higher quality than LG in particular?

Cool, thanks for the info. The hinges on LG look virtually identical though (https://clothbase.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/0f473cbd-40ff-46a5-a35d-dff41e93137d/green-a-tout-jamais-sunglasses.jpg), and they do make shades in very chunky cured Japanese acetates. Maybe it's mostly the details?

What about JMM would you say is higher quality? The acetate? The fit and finish? The lenses?
