Dude:

Is that me? My name is Andre. How'd you do, Andres.

My glass frames are made of titanium. I used to go through frames
every year.

Ah, to be young and reckless.

Now, I've had the same frame for 5 years. I bends and
twists, but won't brake.

I've had the same gold spectacle frames over thirty years. I got tired
of plated frames getting dull or pitting from perspiration and had a
thin frame machined to my own design from a billet. It is worth more
now than it cost when new.

I also have a custom ti frame. Bought it for
$500. It doesn't rust, It doesn't get old, It doesn't break. Once A
year, I get sandpaper and sand it a little. It looks new again. Maybe,
in 1000 years, If I keep sanding it, It will dissolve into thin air.

Congratulations. Does your frame builder have a URL?
