It's a good start, but we'll need more to get these going. But, as I said... we really need to come to a consensus as to the lenses.
I just looked at all of those images, and only one has a nearly-correct brow bar... but the page it's from has no brand/model info and no source.I say mirrored finish, they look like all of these

It's a good start, but we'll need more to get these going. But, as I said... we really need to come to a consensus as to the lenses.
Would there be a way to create both a mirrored and non-mirrored lens and have the buyer be able to choose? I'm personally more of a fan of the mirrored lenses but I can see there being a continued debate about which is accurate, which will unfortunately keep stalling any progress on having the glasses made.
There are a limited set of options for lenses, so we tell them what we want and they show us the closest options. I'll see what is available and post some options here.
Could you guys post (or e-mail/pm) photos that you think are the best representation of the original lenses? Thanks.

Sort of a gunmetal! I like it!I found these the other day. I got them at an American Eagle store at the mall. I think the lenses are a match colorwise.

I think the dark mirrored shade is the right one. Because straight silver chrome doesn't look right.
I think its the black frames that throws off the look of chrome/mirror, making it seem darker than it really is
I have pair of silver framed chrome lens shades and they seem brighter than the McFly ones, but I believe its due to the frame color that tricks the eye
I don't think they were entirely custom made, maybe 'frankensteined'. but then again Roland emailed vintagesunglasses and got a confirmation that it is a rare model.I disagree. The frames are so thin and aren't easily noticed due to the quality of the pictures that it hardly affects how you see the lenses. I stick with that they are the color of the aviators I posted above. They were completely custom for the movie, so it's safe to say that they weren't restricted to what Zeiss actually has in their inventory of lense colors.
