Yes I do have a pair. Bought it used.
The frame is large and dorky. The head retainers are made of elastic (garter material) that is permanently attached to the eyeglass temples with hooks. They are adjustable using velcro. Not too cool if you ask me.
The telescopes are too heavy. Can't wear them for more than 30 mins. Mine won't stay up if I wanted to flip them away. If I wanted to flip them up, they fall back down when I tilt my head down to look at my work. I remedied that by shimming the retaining bolt with paper along its shaft. The remedy did not last long.
I wish that they could accommodate more light. The images are too dark for me. That would necessitate the use of a headlamp or a loupe light--which could make the assembly even heavier. There is also minor distortion along the edges of the lenses.
