Vuarnet 006 Skilynx Emerald Sunglasses
Vintage Vuarnet 006 Skilynx sunglasses feature the very rare Emerald green frame along with the famous Vuarnet PX-4000 SKilynx double gradient mirror lenses in the iconic Vuarnet 006 style reminiscent to vintage B&L Ray-Ban Wayfarers. The Emerald green frame was produced in only very small quantities and distributed only through a few of their highest end retailers in the US and Europe in the mid 1990s. Vuarnet PX-4000 Skilynx lenses are made from a special base, ground and polished on both sides to eliminate distortion. The double gradient mirror Vuarnet Skilynx lenses also incorporate a "blue blocker" coating on the back which offers superior protection from the sun in leisure-oriented sports and adventure activities to minimize glare. Glare reduction is particularly important to ski eyewear and goggles, for harmful UV rays reflect off the snow to challenge vision, and yet traditional polarized sunglass lenses were poorly suited to depth perception and being able to see moguls on the ski slopes. The unisex Emerald green Vuarnet 006 frame measures approximately 5.375" temple to temple and the Skilynx lenses measure approximately 2.125" x 1.675" at the widest points with both laser etched with the trademark Vuarnet "V on a Ski". You'll find the early PX Vuarnet mark on the exterior of one ear stem and PX on the other, and the inside of one stem is impressed Pouilloux and marked 006 while the inside of the other stem is impressed France.
