Good link, boon! I've gotta get me some prescription glasses one day, or reading glasses or something. I can see a street sign a mile away but can't read the paper in front of my face anymore haha.

I like these shades from the link ...

Buster (who started wearing glasses a year or so ago) tells me he's interested in some prescription shades as a Christmas present... he's due for an eye exam next month so I'll give him a rain check.

What's the difference between these and the 2132s?
I got everything I need....almost...

I think that the 2132s are smaller.

got them this morning chaps and chappesses, they are properly cool. today i am Elwood! oh sh*t, no im not. with my normal raybans, all i saw in the mirror was a fuzzy outline, oh well, at least i will be able to see where im going now.
honestly, best thing iv done in ages.
the only marked differeence between these and any of my other raybans is the angle of join between leg and lense face, it is nowhere near as acute. you bosche owners know what i mean, how the glasses jut off your forehead at a forward angle ?
ok i will try to get some pics and show you, take my word for it these are the real deal though. and they're shape seems to fit the head better, that may not be a selling point, i have an odd head!

im a convert:-D

I guess I got lucky;mine fit just like non-'script Ray Bans.The angle of the lens is even the same,but the grind is slightly off-center.This ensures that I can see out of them without having to tilt my whole head upwards.

I've got no complaints either.
