Vintage Silhouette M 7064 Navigator Sunglasses Silver Gold Gradient 57mm Box

About this item

A vintage pair of Silhouette M 7064 navigator sunglasses with a squared pilot front and a straight, flat top bar in silver-tone metal. The centre of the top bar carries a gold-tone and black insert above the bridge, and each slim silver temple has a black ring accent near the hinge, finished with black ear tips. The frame is fitted with gray gradient lenses (darker gray-green at the top, fading to almost clear at the bottom) with a small Silhouette script logo etched in the corner of one lens, and clear adjustable nose pads with small "S" logo pad arms. One temple is marked "FRAME AUSTRIA", "Silhouette" and "V 6006"; the other is marked "M 7064 /80 57□13 135". It comes with a black Silhouette box and a Silhouette "Modellbrillen" soft pouch, still in its plastic sleeve.
