I ordered this Persol model sunglasses, although, via a different seller that was fulfilled by Amazon. My wife and I both have the "Club Master" Ray Bans, also "Made in Italy." The Persol is superior. Persol is known worldwide for having superior hinges. My sunglasses were delivered "NEW," precisely as advertised. Unfortunately, there was a VERY minor manufacturing defect in the hinge where the two lens fold. The problem was that the lens would move slightly when putting on the sunglasses. There should not be any movement, except when applying pressure to fold the lens. When folding the lens it does require a slight bit of force in folding the lens, so that the sunglasses function as a regular non folding pair until when needed to fold such as maybe traveling. These sunglasses are different from any you most likely have owned are tried on. You can wear these sunglasses all day long while driving or any other outdoor activity. I did return the pair that I received, but will definitely be reordering. Purchasing via Amazon fulfillment was "no brainer" decision. I got a prompt refund issued, once the return package was in the UPS tracking system. This was done within 12 hours from when I dropped off the package. Thank you very much Amazon!! UPDATE: 12-30-2016 I purchased two of these same identical Persol 714 from the same seller, return/refund, reorder. Each order delivered had the same identical problem with the lens. The left lens moves with the slightest touch. The lens DO NOT move unless when applying pressure to fold the lens. The same amount of pressure needs to be applied as when folding the arms. The same as the arms, the lens snap into place and remain snugly locked in place until folding, which does require some pressure. The lens when unfolded and snapped into place have what is best described as a "friction fit." The lens and the middle section of the bridge have a tight 'friction fit' to hold the lens snugly in place. These do not have that type of precise fit, at least the two that I received did not. I ordered a third pair from a different seller here at Amazon which are the polarized version of the Persol 714, "prescription ready." Since I do wear prescription glasses, I thought this may be exactly what I need since there may be something slightly different about the lens frames. Once again, I received the sunglasses with the same identical problem, only worse. The left lens would simply dangle. It was that loose. I took the second pair of the Persol 714 (Havana) grey/green lens to a local retailer to compare the sunglasses I received with the pair the store had on display for sale. They both had the same identical appearance. The pair I received appeared new. What I discovered is that the retailer's pair of folding lenses are NOT loose. It required me to apply the same amount of pressure to fold the lens as in folding the arms. I had planned to have prescription lens installed in my Persol 714, once I received a decent pair of frames. After three attempts, I don't think that will happen. In my opinion, if you wear prescription sunglasses look around and pay a little more to get a good pair of frames. I generally wear prescription sunglasses for 4-5 years before needing a new prescription. These frames would not last more than 1 (maybe) 2 years, if you are lucky. CONCLUSION: If you return/reorder within the time frame allowed by Amazon, after several attempts, you might get a pair of Persol 714's that are not in the condition as I have described. Apparently, the sellers here are selling new, but factory defective Persol 714's; hence, the discount pricing. CHECK THIS OUT: [...]
