Picked up some Persol 649's 54mm and I cannot decide whether they are too big and I should go with 52's.... thankfully I can return these.

I am leaning toward them being a bit too large and thinking the 52's will fit perfect... they hit my cheeks a bit when I smile, just needed some other opinions.

here are some pics:

A bit big, and they need major adjustment to sit on your face properly.

The glasses look passable enough, a bit large. Are you drying marijuana on your curtain rod?

Where'd you buy these? I just got laser eye surgery so I'm looking to buy my first pair of shades and I like these.

I have a pair of 649's - I love them.

Got them for a good price at framesdirect.com

I think they look fine on you.
