Ray-Ban W0368 CATS 4000 RB-50 Sunglasses
1 Vintage Ray-Ban CATS 4000 sunglasses feature a black nylon aviator frame reminiscent of Vuarnet 003 sunglasses but with iconic and pacesetting Bausch & Lomb RB-50 mineral glass lenses that completely eliminate glare and ultraviolet radiation. A graduated mirror coating is applied to the base lens to create the mirrored finish and add extra glare blocking power for strong glare conditions, a unique general purpose specialty lens for moderate to extreme glare conditions. For general use, the light absorption ranges from 80% to 90% but it extends to 95% under cold, bright conditions to make it excellent for skiing and other high glare snow sports. B&L Ray-Ban RB-50 lenses also feature 100% ultraviolet protection and an ability to "filter out scattered blue light to enhance contrast and sharpen details with true color recognition", and the exclusive, anti-reflective coating on vintage RB 50 lenses reduces back glare and sunburn problems associated with traditional mirrored lenses. The unisex Ray-Ban CATS 4000 frame is durable and flexible and measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple, and the RB 50 lenses measure approximately 2.25" x 1.75" at the widest points with right lens laser etched Ray-Ban 50 and both lenses laser etched BL near the hinges. You'll find the Ray-Ban logo embossed on the exterior of both ear stems, and the inside of one stem is impressed Bausch & Lomb along with the B&L triangle trademark while the inside of the other stem is impressed Frame France Nylon, part of the collection of a well known European business executive and long time customer of the Vintage Sunglasses Shop.
