    They look authentic, do they have B&L etchings on both lens by the hinges? They have an Outdoorsman Frame ,G-15 lens with cable temples and looks like an authentic. B&L case. What does it have etched on the top and bottom part of the top bar:D below the brow bar?

    @ryan44 These are Wayfarer 5024 L2053 OWAS they look almost identical to your sunglasses except the studs are on the side of yours and none in the front, that's throwing me off.

    If you could post some pictures that'd be great. I can't authenticate sunglasses with just a description. Those links you posted have real authentic B&L Ray Bans I need to see your lens in order to determine if they're the real deal or not. Lens are interchangeable someone could get any real b&l...

    @attesom Sorry I was mistaken, thank you for clarifying mmafia1 they are indeed authentic, the sideways B&L is rare. They are either from the late 60's or 70's, I'd value them at 200-250 dollars maybe 300. The case I've always seen these particular pair is in a light brown bausch and lomb case...

    They no longer make them. I do know Luxottica brought back their version of ambermatics and pink changeables but they don't compare to the quality of their vintage B&L counterparts, that's what makes B&L Ray Ban aviators so highly sought after especially some rare models that can fetch upwards...

    My favorite B&L Ray Ban aviator model is the B-20 Chromax driving series. When you're wearing them reds and greens pop its hard to describe but everything looks more defined, they're an amazing lens. The frame is light and the nose pads are the most comfortable B&L made. You can find them on...

    @trubritishgent it happens sometimes, people put modern day luxottica lenses on Vintage B&L Frames that's what I think happened or even less likely it might be a pair that was made during the transition period in 1998 when B&L sold to luxottica. The frame sounds authentic though. @mmafia1 I...

    @attesom very flattering but I'm just knowledgeable and know what to search for, just like those American Pickers guys. Anyways I digress those are unfortunately one of the most counterfit pair of vintage Ray Ban out there. The B&L laser etching is a bit disconcerning it seems to be in the wrong...

    Vintage Ray Bans are a hot commodity, you'd be surprised.

    @saturdays I'm 99% sure they never made them from real tortoise shells.

    @chuckie egg yup those are g-15's in a black aviator frame. You can sell them on ebay for about 200-250 since they're basically new. They came in a 58mm or 62mm frame. 58's are the more desirable ones (that's what you have), 62's are a bit big imo.
