【TRUE-Color】
A rare original release from that era, featuring an
oversized style in AO's signature tortoiseshell acetate
equipped with their proprietary lenses.
The profound weight, intricate details, and high quality
are a crystallization of workmanship that cannot be
replicated by modern technology.
A rare, complete deadstock model equipped with
AO's in-house brand TRUE-Color (gray) glass lenses,
developed under the concept of a lens for year-round
use that keeps the view clear and undistorted.
