    Mister X, I do know about the eyewear industry most of them are designed in the same place in Italy.
    I know they bought Ray Bans, took it off the market for a year. Before they took it off the market you could get them everywhere for £20, they brought it back and all of a sudden it cost a lot more.
    For me Ray Bans were just cheap cr*p, still are as far as I am concerned.

    I like different and usually choose away from the crowd, for my glasses and sunglasses I wear Parasite Eyewear. I have been wearing Parasite for more than 15 years+, the first time I bumped into anyone else wearing one was last year while I was working in Italy and the guy said to me that was the first time he has bumped into someone who knows and wears Parasite.

    Longman that is because Skoda, Bentley etc are owned by the VW Group.

    You are 100% correct.I try to listen to all my devices as thats what they were designed to be used for.I was always told
    they need to be used or they will end up failing.

    That might be the cleanest looking Bodo Khan I have ever seen. Very, nice! I see you also got one of our member's custom "green" DC2 lights also. I like it a lot.

    Thank you for sharing. I think the guys over at Walkman.land like @Emiel here on the forum would really like a few nice shots of that Bodo Khan of yours for the gallery!

    Its maybe not the cleanest close up but it was the best working one i could find at the time.
