Miller Hailiffe Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Hello new friends Like everyone here i live and breathe Vice, moreso today as theres no greater reality than immersing yourself in a time where smartphones are nowhere in sight and lil pump is still 18years from being able to harm anybody. Anyway...im starting a collection of vintage sunglasses as a way of helping me quit smoking, here is my prized possession the 5512, i found these babies for 275.00 on ebay, great used condition and as close to DJs pair as i could find, however the lenses are slightly unusable, i need help on where to get some lenses(authentic not fuse) i like the carrera text but have no idea what to look for? Are there interchangeable lenses from other 55** varients? Thanks for any help 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro80sfan Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Welcome to the site and back to the 1980s! Nice pairs of Wayfarers and Carreras. Good luck on your vintage sunglasses journey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Welcome to the site, @Miller Hailiffe ! Congrats on quitting smoking! A few of us here are into the shades. I have some Persols like season 3, the Wayfarers from all four other seasons, and the a few pairs of 5512s, but I’m still no expert on any of them. However, if you’ll send me a PM, I have some spare 5512 lenses with the Carrera logo you can have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller Hailiffe Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Thanks team, yeah im starting a colection of iconic glasses from the 80s, mainly carrera as theyre a fascinating brand Im gradually putting away a few dollars a week for some Alpinas, i could buy them now but cant justify dropping 600 in one hit lol Heres a few more, the cleaning cloth/tag/400 sticker are fakes from a pair of fakes i bought on wish, lol, but it dresses it up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
