Bausch & Lomb U.S.A - Ray-Ban B&L Shooter 1/30 10K GO Cal. 62 [ ] 14 B-15 Lenses Vintage 70's - By Bausch & Lomb USA - Sunglasses

Vintage Ray-Ban bullet-hole shooter sunglasses from circa the 1980s to early 1990s are an icon of modern sunglasses design, full of innovation, including the center-ring “bullet hole,” the “General” brow bar, shooter ear stems for the most secure fit possible, and, of course, the famous Bausch & Lomb B-15 anti-glare lenses. To produce these famous frames, gold is permanently bonded to premium-grade steel that was specially alloyed for both strength and malleability. The center “bullet hole” and “General” brow bar were both designed to improve balance on the face for hunters and shooters, but it’s fortunate that these design innovations also happen to look super cool! Bausch & Lomb B-15 lenses are known for their ability to transmit all colors equally, so they retain their true values and provide 85% visible-light absorption and 100% UV protection. The teardrop-shaped 62mm G-15 lenses measure approximately 2.25" x 2.0" at their widest points, with “Ray-Ban” laser-etched on the right lens and “BL” laser-etched on both lenses near the hinges. The unisex bullet-hole shooter frame measures approximately 5.25" temple to temple, and the top of the nose bridge is stamped “B&L Ray-Ban USA.”

A few specifications for “Gold Overlay”: The weight of the gold can be less than 1/30th the weight of the metal. A stamp indicating overlay quality must be carried on the object. Size L. With case.
