True Vintage Rare Ray-Ban by Bausch & Lomb ww II Aviator 52 mm for bigger pictures please open the link as follows: http://s4.postimg.org/rffluoqhn/New_folder15.jpg http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/mpkAAOSwaG9XIucg/s-l1600.jpg True Vintage Rare RAY-BAN by Bausch & Lomb WW II AVIATOR 52 mm 1/10 12 k G F RB-3 true green lenses 1940s Sunglasses With Original Genuine Leather Case. Made in the USA. Rare!! Unique!!! Lovely Shades!!! These are in excellent vintage condition This is a very Rare find with the 12k GF frame,RB-3 true green lenses, and Original Case!!! Very early Ray-Ban 12 k gold filled aviator sunglasses c 1940s - 1950s feature rare 52 mm lenses, a smaller size than the typical mininum 58 mm lenses and only made very early in Baush & Lomb production. These classic B&L Ray-Ban aviators feature a 12 k gold filled B&L frame that measures approximately 5.0 temple to temple, perfect along with the 52 mm lenses for most women and men with a smaller head and face size. Ray-Ban RB 3 52 mm aviator lenses measure approximately 2.0 x 1.75 at the widest points. These vintage Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses have paddle ear stems, original bakelite nose pads, and the gold plated frame is marked on the top of the nose bridge Ray-Ban and on the bottom of the bridge B&L 1/10 12 k G F all impressed in the gold plating. The lenses, size, use of bakelite, and top nose bridge marks are all indicative of very early B&L Ray-Ban production, and they will also come in an early original B&L Ray-Ban 52 mm case. Rare. Please view all pics with the magnifier for a precise and accurate description 100% Guaranteed to be 100% Authentic As an example, a vintage Ray-Ban frame with impressed marks B&L 1/10 12K GF indicates a frame with gold content of about 5% pure gold when you exclude the plastic parts, lenses, and screws. To be more exact, the frames are 5% pure gold, 2.5% copper for wear resistance to the gold finish, 2.5% silver to retain the yellow color of pure gold, and the balance magnetic steel in the core. The GF hallmark does in fact mean Gold Filled, but when you consider the relatively small percentage of gold the frames contain and the fact that the gold is on the surface of the frame rather than the core you can see that the GF marking is somewhat a misnomer. It should also be noted that the GF mark is equivalent to the G.O. (Gold Overlay) mark and the RGP (Rolled Gold Plate) mark all used at different periods. Each of these marks implies a gold content of at least 5% by weight. In this type of plating, a layer of gold is attached to the core metal by a combination of pressure, heat, and chemicals. This is the origin of the Rolled in RGP, i.e. the gold is literally rolled or pressed onto the core metal. This method differs from electroplating in that the gold content in electroplating is less than 1% by weight. The idea behind RGP is to put enough gold on the core metal such that there will be no wear through at least 30 years of wear. Obviously the process is better than expected as weve never seen a vintage B&L Ray-Ban gold filled frame with wear through to the finish. The bottom line is that a GF finish will last indefinitely with no significant wear to the gold plating at all. Remember that a 12K gold alloy of 50% gold, 25% copper and 25% silver has a hardness rating of 160. Thats pretty hard compared to pure gold which has a hardness rating of just 20. 100 % ORIGINAL, QUALITY AND STYLE!!! in a excellent condition for its age Beauties! Stunning & Rare! sold as it is, you will get what you see in the picture if any questions just ask :)
