Hi, ive been collecting vintage ray bans for a few months, today I received a pair of tortuga aviators 58□14. The bottom of the bar has b&l ray ban 58 □14 on it but the top bar is not clear enough to read - due to the tortoiseshell coating. The glasses are mint apart from a few scratches to the rim and lenses are glass with the appropriate markings. However there is a discrepancy with the positioning of the B&L logos on the lenses. The right lens has the logo above the arm whilst the left logo is about 3mm lower. Is this a sign of a replacement lens or have chinese copies started to include glass lenses? Could really do with some help on this since I havent encountered this on my other bans and am loathe to keep them if thy are indeed fakes. Any help or insight would be very much appreciated.
