I've avoided rayban this long, but the new aviation collection releasing legacy frames piqued my interest just enough to bite the bullet and grab a few! So here's my first take on literally touching rayban for the first time! (unbelievable right?!) I've got a real bauschand Lomb vintage so we're gona make some comparisons and see where this thing goes!

B&L sold the Ray-Ban trademarks to Luxottica but not their patents. New ones (post-1999?) feel like flimsy replicas.

Agreed with every word you said. Lux RBs are bull***t. By the by, is bakelite the word you were looking for at min. 1.53? And incidentally: do you know where i can find a pair of NOS B&L Ray Ban Shooters with Arista frame and either RB-3 or G-15 lenses?
Thanks so much and keep up the awesome videos ;-)

Hey that was fun!!! Though I have a few pair of B&L RB's as they were most available here in Canada never really a fan. Fun video though - very much look forward to your comparisons with AO & RE where I think many people will be quite surprised to learn of superior options available right under their noses 🙂

Sure would be nice to see comparisons to the Shuron MacArthur though plastic lens, glass is an upgradeable option. No denying the MacArthur look pretty vintage. Have you considered carrying Shuron?

Hey Glasses Guy!

Does the old "clear nail polish on the screws" actually work?

My arms aren't necessarily loose, but they "wiggle" ever so slightly.

I have OCD and end up tightening my screws far too often, and I'm not even sure that they're loose since they don't move (at least what's visible to my naked eye).

Would the slight wiggle be from the spring hinges? Or even simply a natural movement even?

Thanks in advance. Love the channel!

Its a crime that Outdoorsman II only comes in 62mm 🤮
