Rolled out in the '70s as a redesigned,
all-black update to the classic gray horn-rim glasses,
this is an authentic military-issue frame.

Back then, heavy hitters like American Optical (AO)
and Bausch & Lomb made this exact silhouette
under strict U.S. government specs for the Army.
Because multiple contractors supplied parts to keep up
with military demand,
you’ll often see genuine pairs with mismatched maker stamps
between the front and temples.
This rare gem rocks a USS-made front paired
with original Bausch & Lomb temples.



The frame is in mint vintage condition—super clean with
zero degradation or acetate shrinkage
