Classic full rim metal glasses

[bvg79]

I've always used Ray Ban rectangular shaped metal frames for prescription glasses. I see everyone is going on acetate or carbon fiber, but I think metal is less "geeky" and provides a discrete and sober look for office and work meetings. I need to wear them all the time, so the lightness always count. I have to change my frames now and I was struggling to find a similar model from my last one (which is already very old and clanky), but it was difficult. I almost thought on moving to a discrete acetate, but when I tested it, it felt so prominent and protagonist that I reassured myself of why I like metal thin frames so much.

Have you guys any hints on possible frames? I really liked this model, but it's not that easy to find besides online or ordering. http://www.ray-ban.com/usa/eyeglasses/RX6333 MALE 008-rb6333-gunmetal/8053672401899?category_Id=332344

How do you mean "but it's not that easy to find besides online or ordering", the URL you give reveals a willingness to sell at $165. Or do you mean you can't find them cheaper?

You are right. The thing is that I never ordered eyeglasses before, having always bought them with the lens in local optician stores. The waiting time doubles when you have to wait for the frame and then order the lens. I'll try to phone different stores today in order to find it.

I hardly think such delay is unbearable.
