You don’t want those. They don’t even look real.

You’ll want the 24/31 Havana. The glasses in that listing show color 24/57. I don’t even think they make a legit 24/57 in that model.

Persols are hard to shop for because their naming system is confusing.

I could be wrong, but I think Bond wore each of these in different movies.
I know he wore the Snowdons in Spectre. That’s where I first saw them. The Snowdons are great looking glasses but they aren’t as comfortable as the Persols or Oliver Peoples. Probably because they’re size 53 (or 52), either way, that’s a smallish lens


Not sure I’ve ever seen the other two in Bond. He’s rocked some Persols but they were the 2720s. Not my style but he looked pimp in them.

Vaurnet makes great sunglasses. They still make the lenses in house too.

RayBan should replace the lenses in the ones you already have for about 20-30 bucks.

Peppers makes a decent pair of glasses. I’ve had two pair so far and like them. Cheap too, really cheap.

Go with the Mauis like I said earlier. The new Blue Hawaii lens is the best I have ever worn for brightness. Both in sun and clouds

Blue Hawaii in Frosted Tail Slide frames. Awesome pair of rims




If you need more of a wrap around frame, Peahi or Sting Ray are both excellent

Peahi



Stingray





Dont settle for shitty glasses if you are outside a lot

The ones that fold up and fit in your pocket changed my life.

I used to think 300 was too much for glasses but I bought them anyway. Now that I am wearing prescription glasses it's more like 800 a pair.
