AO's immortal icon, "Surmont"

Although it is not a 12KGF model, it retains the timeless style and details adorned with wing hinges.

This is a miraculous deadstock item that has been in perfect condition since it was made half a century ago and has been sleeping ever since.



The realistic vintage frames that you can feel when you hold them in your hands have an authentic appeal that cannot be matched by the many copies and replicas on the market.
