Interest in exchanging Tom Ford SNOWDON FT 0237 05B vs. FT 0237 52N ?

Seven

Sirs,

I´m offering a pair of brand-new Tom Ford SNOWDON FT 0237 05B (shiny black).
I would like to exchange them for a new pair of the FT 0237 52N (havana).

May be someone likes the black frame better than the havana frame.

Please let me know if you´re interested in buying the black ones as well.

Best regards,

Let's face it guys: you'll have to get both versions, just like I had to )

What's your price on the black ones?

I for one am perfectly happy with my Shiny Black ones and can't see myself changing to the Havanas, which to me at least seem to be a bit too similar to the CR Persols, colourwise. I'm not against them, I just happen to appreciate the 05B's uniqueness and have gotten compliments on them. If I was buying them today, yes, I'd probably go for SA but I WOULD consider the blacks nevertheless.

On a side note, I had the chance to try the Henry's during a recent trip and was disappointed with how they look on me: the bridge is way too high and they end up being the least favouring TF shades I've ever tried on. Pity as those seem to be a forum favourite. Curious to know if any other member has the same problem...

I haven't tried on the Henry's, but I have tried on other brands Clubmasters. I really like the look of the Ray Bans. Persol makes a version as well, so you can get the look without buying Tom Ford. Maybe one of the others has a bridge more to your liking.

I have tried on both the Shiny Black and Havana Snowdons, I too prefer the look of the shiny black.

Let's face it....for those of us that bought the black shiny ones, we are fooked...

I have the black and even although the Havana are obvs screen accurate, the black suited me more so I've kept my 05B's.

Just my two-bobs worth! Good luck -{

I prefer the gradient lens on the 05B's and like you, have received several compliments along the way! Quite happy

Us Bond geeks aside, I'm not sure Joe Public would recognise them as Bond anyway! )

I also have the shiny black Snowdons, but I'm not too bothered about getting the SA havana ones because the Snowdons are my least favorite of the DC TF sunglasses.They feel a lot flimsier and easily breakable compared to the solid construction of the Henrys and Markos.
