Ray-Ban B-15 Top Gradient Mirror Aviator Sunglasses
1 Vintage Ray-Ban L1693 Driving Series sunglasses feature rare Bausch & Lomb B-15 top gradient mirror (TGM) lenses, one of the best lenses ever produced by Bausch & Lomb, with a highly reflective silver mirror coating on the top half of the lenses transitioning to constant density for the lower half. It's a great effect to look at, but it's also functional and used by those like pilots who need optimal glare protection when looking out but need to read instrument panels and LEDs down below where a mirrored lens can inhibit visual acuity. The unisex Ray-Ban gold plated Arista 62mm aviator frame will stand the test of time and measures approximately 5.675" temple to temple. The 62mm B-15 top gradient mirror mineral glass lenses measure approximately 2.375" x 2.0" at the widest points with the right lens laser etched Ray-Ban and both lenses laser etched BL near the hinges. The top of the nose bridge is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA while the bottom of the bridge is impressed B&L Ray-Ban 62 [] 14, and on some production one ear pad is impressed L1693 VPAS. Rare.
