Can't find Tony Stark's sunglasses from Iron Man 3

Ok, so I'm going to have "an early best guess" at the brainstorming frames. On the second top right screencap from Godwin, they are not as "flat" on the top as I had originally thought.
I believe the side "oval" may not be an oval, as it is not in the "centre" of the arm, which would be odd...(must be the lighting).
Also, on the first top left screencap, the silver hinges seem to be visible from the "top" of the arms, as per the second pic below.
So, I think they are:
Hugo Boss 0680 glasses - shn Black D28
boss-by-hugo-boss-boss-0680-v3q.jpg

gboss-by-hugo-boss-boss-0680-v3q (1).jpg

These are the only frames so far that match the lower frame angularity. The Hugo Boss logo may be on the arms, or may have been removed.
I hope I'm right , because for a change, they look available to buy quite easily:)
Higher res. screencaps will hopefully confirm 100%

Damn looks like the link I provided for the 51mm are sold out as well. Anyone have a link for the 51mm
Hi Manchester07,
sorry, missed your earlier post about the 2430's. There were originally 3 on ebay, varying in price from $77 for used, to €225 in France. It looks like its only the €225 that is left.....all my other searching came to dead ends.
Here is the link for the listing:
Persol 2430 Black | eBay

The link I've found for the CD 137 in 51mm is here, but its UK:

Dior Homme BLACKTIE 137 Prescription Glasses from $194.00 | Dior Homme | Designer Glasses

Hope this helps dude.
 
Thank you! Let's hope i don't get refunded a third time for the diors has anyone managed to successfully order one?

If they are the Hugo Boss 0680, looks like 4 colorways:

Shn Black D28
Havana DWJ
Bw Shdgry TV7
(Shadow grey)
Blue V5Q

My money would be on the black D28.
 
When did you order? Did you order from that link you posted?
Persol's ebay, CD's the link. Both have not shipped yet, so can't really 100% confirm either at the moment.
What do you think about the brainstorming frames?....I decided I kinda really like the style of the black HB's and ordered some regardless.
I like to be away before the starting pistol!! Lol

I just got refunded from the site you posted for the CD :( looks like this one will also be impossible to get

Selling/sold out fast probably, or that awful thing where websites say "in stock" but after taking your money, suddenly decide not...ooooh, so annoying when they do that:mad:
 
Gotmeth366 nailed it earlier on p.66
"Man, why do they use eyewear that's discontinued and hard for us to get!!"....couldn't agree more.
I thought the whole point of product placement was to make money!
Its made worse by them swapping around lenses etc.

RDJs stylist said he owns over 200+ pairs of glasses a couple years ago (I can only assume the collection has grown), so it’s very possible he’s just wearing what he walked in on set with too. It would explain why some of these are so hard to find.
Also good guess on the Boss frames! I still can’t really tell (I should probably go see the movie again anyway lolol) but they’re definitely in the same spirit as what he’s wearing there. If I can make out any more details next time I go I’ll let you all know!

Thanks man!
I kinda self-convinced myself the frames are the HB's, if not, well they're not a bad pair to own anyway, as I got a great deal on them...so dived in head first as usual!! Lol
I put Godwin's 4 images into photoshop and enhanced them a bit before I bought some.
The other thing I did notice was, as they are only available in 55mm, they do actually look like 55's on him, in the 4th screencap.
Most places have them, but after more looking, found 1 or 2 sites did state "discontinued".
Likewise, if I find anymore details I'll keep everyone in loop.
