B&L Ray-Ban L1629 Wings Leathers Pink Changeables Sunglasses
1 Vintage B&L Ray-Ban L1629 Wings Leathers sunglasses feature the rare one piece polycarbonate pink Changeables photochromatic lens trimmed in burgundy English bridle leather in this top of the line variation of the iconic Wings design that quickly became one of the top choices of pilots around the world following their introduction. B&L Ray-Ban Wings sunglasses were the last great innovation from B&L in eyewear before selling the Ray-Ban brand to Luxottica in 1998. Aside from the unique design and 1 piece lens, Wings sunglasses also used polycarbonate lenses - the same material used on airplane windshields - which allowed Wings to provide a large surface area of eye protection while remaining lightweight. Very few B&L Wings Leathers were produced, and even fewer combined burgundy leather with Bausch & Lomb pink changeables lenses, photochromatic to adapt to changing light conditions. The photochromatic properties of B&L Ray-Ban Changeables lenses are infused into the lens and will never wear off or wear out. The unisex Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban L1629 Wings Leathers frame measures approximately 5.675" temple to temple, and the left side of the lens is laser etched Wings Bausch & Lomb. The gold bar behind the nose is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA, part of the collection of a 30 year veteran of Delta Airlines and customer of the Vintage Sunglasses Shop.
