Really nice! I actually have a friend who managed to find a real pair of Zeiss just a week ago!! His came with reflective mirrors:
Will it be possible to snap out the bridge if we wanted to replace it with a real zeiss one?
I know you can with Zeiss:
Do we know what color the screen used nose pieces are?
Yeah I think it's some sort of a translucent white
They seem longer than normal nose pieces.
Like on this pair of real Ziess glasses.

Looking good! :cool Are those the same lenses as you picked out? Are they mirrored? Just wondering what the size of the lens are?
Yes, those are the semi-mirrored lenses as discussed earlier in the thread. I'll get some more shots later this week. I've also got a few different nose pieces I'll be trying out.

Great! Looking forward to more photos. Very fun indeed
Is the bridge fixed in place?

Ok, thank you
Ok... so here are the prototypes again:
Now, there are two different nose pads available; one are more rectangular (rounded corners) in a translucent white, the others more "teardrop" shaped and clear:
The lenses... they're not as reflective as I thought they'd be (now seeing them in the frames). Though they do photograph pretty well, in person they seem more like just dark shiny lenses. Here are three photos (from left to right): indoors, outdoors side lit, outdoors facing the sun:
So... should we try sourcing more reflective/mirror lenses?
Special thanks to my mini-McFly model.

Yes I do believe we should look for more mirrored lenses. Also would it be possible to source long oval clear nose pieces? Like the ones I posted earlier.
I thought it was believed the original nosepads were more cloudy-white than clear.
Since we do not have pictures of the glasses other than screen caps we can't know for sure, but they are definitely long ovals. You could offer both clear and translucent. I've worn the same pair of glasses for years and at some angles they look translucent, but head on they are clear. The picture I posted from the movie you're seeing the angle that makes it look translucent.
