Ray-Ban Stateside Multicolor RB-50 Mirrored Sunglasses
1 Vintage Ray-Ban Stateside sunglasses are a color explosion of blue, black, red, yellow, and green produced c mid 1980s, but the real stars of the show are the rare and highly reflective Bausch & Lomb RB-50 mirrored lenses. The RB-50 lens is one of the finest, most advanced lenses ever produced, 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. RB-50 features include "100% ultraviolet protection comfort zoned for moderate to bright glare with an absorption" and an ability to "filter out scattered blue light to enhance contrast and sharpen details with true color recognition. The exclusive, anti-reflective coating on vintage RB 50 lenses reduces back glare and sunburn problems associated with traditional mirrored lenses.This frame color and lens combination is really eye catching, a great fashion statement and produced in only very small quantities and thus a must have for any serious Ray-Ban collector or fashion aficionado. The unisex Ray-Ban Stateside frame measures approximately 5.75" temple to temple, and the Bausch & Lomb G-31 silver mirror lenses measure approximately 2.25" x 1.75" at the widest points with both lenses laser etched BL. You'll find the Ray-Ban logo decorating the exterior of both ear stems, and the inside of one stem is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA while the inside of the other stem is impressed Stateside. Rare.

3 Special Discount Opportunity! Just need lenses? Sometimes we get a great pair of sunglasses as part of a larger lot which in some way does not meet our very high condition and authenticity standard. That's the case here, with a Ray-Ban Stateside frame that's warped over the years and where the inside of the ear stems have faded and lost color. But the rare and original Ray-Ban RB-50 lenses can be easily removed and will fit any vintage Ray-Ban Stateside frame perfectly without the need for any cutting, a simple procedure that any decent optical shop can do for you.
