This military issue model was redesigned in the 1970s with a gray horn rim.

At the time, the same model was manufactured to strict US government specifications by mainstream American brands such as AO and Bausch & Lomb.
Produced as a distribution model for the US Army.
This is the reason why there are many cases where the brand name written on the front and temples do not necessarily match.
This is
a rare piece with both the front and temples made by Bausch & Lomb.


* The lenses that go well with this frame were selected at the Burbank lab, which produces many sunglasses for film and television.
I installed light grey (25%) lenses.
When worn, the intensity is such that others can faintly see your eyes.
The frame is in excellent condition with no signs of deterioration or cell thinning.


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