driez17 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 Hi, I'm back again I'm going to buy these second hands pair of sunglasses but I don't know if they are vintage..They look similar to the sunglasses of Tubbs' though there are a few differences.Porsche Design, no doubt it are real ones. I'm going to buy them for €110 (138 USD), still pricy but worth it if your a real Miami Vice fan.[ATTACH=CONFIG]6105[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]6106[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I know is that they used Carrera 5512.This is the sunglasses I wore to work today. Same style.And a small hint. They work well with a white linen suit and light pink/blue t-shirt [ATTACH=CONFIG]6110[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXistenZ Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 Yeah, I don't think Tubbs ever wore these shades. Tubbs wore several shades by Carrera, bot not this one. The model is made by Porsche Design no. 5621 or 5623 (100% vintage). But it was worn by Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills cop. These shades are still cool as hell and really an eyecatcher. I own a model with black frame and two diferrent colored lenses (grey and brown). Buy it!!! But you really should pick up a Carrera 5512 someday, my favourite.

It depends on where you live. For example here in Germany I pay 40-50$ for a vintage pair. For a pair of Carrera Endurance I'd pay 50$ or more. But vintage is the way to go.
