Love the comprehensive philosophy behind Luden’s mask.
Thank you. I find it hard to verbalise so glad it came across
@@thespectaclefactory you’re so articulate in your evaluations and observations. Your delivery is seamless.
I love the last pair, your Reykjavik Eyes Alvar, because they both are stylish and get out of the way so we can focus on your astonishingly handsome face. 🔥 What's even crazier, is on the opposite side of the spectrum, I love your "boring" Walter & Herbert Churchill. This style, the "P3" can be traced to the 1930s, when the U.S. army invented the unique shape for nearsighted soldiers to wear under their gas masks. The P stands for pantoscopic tilt - the tilt of the lens toward your cheeks - with the 3 referring to the difference in millimeters between the width and height of the lens. From its military origins, the shape became a Hollywood signature when screen icons like James Dean and Grace Kelly started wearing it. This style is classic and like the Reykjavik Eyes Alvar, they get out of the way, so much so, that your hotness seers through these glasses. James Dean would be proud.
That's a really cool story, wow. Thanks for sharing, and the compliments!
Bro, to be transparent I’ve watched over 4 hours of your content in the past 3 days LOL
I’ve learned so much that when I went my local optician shop I was actually frustrated at how LITTLE they knew about the products they were trying to sell me!
I ended up canceling my order with them because I plan on buying from you after learning you can ship to the US.
I’ll look into booking a virtual consultation to perfect the frame and tint combo.
Also wondering about pricing as I assume you do not take my US insurance called VSP.
I look forward to meeting you! We can discuss your budget and pricing during the call
Same thing happened to me! I live in NYC and I too want to find an optician that uses the same cutting edge digital technology for my next pair of lenses. Is there a place? I don't know.
Um…whoops at 29:29 - you labeled your JF Rey 2836s as Reykjavik Eyes 🤗
Well spotted! And sorry for the mistake
great content. always wondered what you wear most, because at the end whatever we collect, we end up usually wearing mostly just a few of the things we have
You’re collection is awesome mate 👏 I don’t know which is my favorite you have so many stylish and impressive looking glasses
Your collection is absolutely stunning! You have a pair just for chill 😅 ❤ I love this channel!
Thanks! And hope you continue to enjoy the content
Man, been looking forward to this video ever since the last one. Which was years ago 😂 Thank you Robert, its always really meaningful to see what choices you pick for yourself
We really appreciate the support and we're so glad you enjoyed the video.
Happy New Year Robert! ❤
You too😊
Just happened to get on YT and this was the first recommended video to me. Uploaded 27 seconds ago.
Been wanting such a video of your personal collection for inspiration. Thank you!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Great video! Though I'm suspicious that these might not be all of your glasses. ;-) Insightful thoughts on the spot for pairs that might not be tops in the rotation -- where obvy not every pair can be worn every week when you have dozens of pairs.
Amazing collection
Thank you!!
I love my Reykjavik Alvars thanks so much Robert , happy new years🎉
So glad you're enjoying them!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful collection with us!
I like the 1 of 1, Barton Perreira and the Mapi most, though each pair looks good on you and is very very well suited in terms of style.
Oh, your car is unbelievable, congratulations on daring to drive such a beauty!
Thank you Natalia!!
My favs of yours are (in no particular order): Ahlem NY(love the design of the frame, the tint is too pink imho, would go more into organe or yellow), the Mojo looks quite unspecatuclar for me, but what you did with the yellow lens rime is a great fit, all the Reykjavik glasses, the transparent/grey Eco with purple tint (love them!!)
Quite fun seeing your personal collection and understanding which you wear more than others. I don't feel as bad now owning more frames than I "need". Genuinely appreciate your style, approach and thoughtful reviews. Wish you were in the States.
We really appreciate your support and to be fair you can never have too many😉 Maybe one day we'll open a branch over in the states, but for now you can book a free virtual consultation with myself and I'll help you choose the best frames and lenses for you and help you grow your eyewear collection.

@@thespectaclefactory Hi. I have sent 4 emails but still haven't got a response. Can you please respond?
I wanted to get a certain pair of Porsche design sunglasses for my nephews. Please respond ASAP.
I liked what you said about Djokovic and Lacoste. For me the same, love him but not a big fan of Lacoste not just their eyewear
👍
Thank you as always 😊
You’re welcome 😊
The Pink tint does suits you actually. 😊😊😊
Happy new year Rob. What a collection! You have some really interesting sets there. For me, in joint 3rd place would be the Fitz (most original tint for me) and the Alba (one day… one day…).
Second place is your one off Reykjavik Eyes 1 of 1. I’d love to get something similar with the same adaptive sun tint.
Best pair have to be your custom Barton Perreira Tom. The tint, the custom shape all wrapped up in my favourite brand. #SimplyPerfect!
We really appreciate your support! If you'd like your own pair of custom tinted glasses, make sure you contact us at... www.thespectaclefactory.com/v-contact and we'll help you get the best glasses for you.
@@thespectaclefactory I’m due another test so I’ll see if I can come up and get the full experience.
Love the video. Only a few I hadn’t seen, but I think like everyone else I was shocked Robert didn’t have a pair of Cartier glasses. Great collection though. Love it👍
🙏
For a different tint for your Ahlem frames, I was thinking a bi-gradient tint with sweet violet at the top fading into a sunset violet at the bottom
For as much as Robert talks about Cartier, I cannot believe he doesn’t own a pair.
My thoughts exactly.
Because the Cartier sunglasses are ridiculously expensive and doesn’t worth it.
Good point. He explains it (him not having a pair of Cartier) in the video where he has a guest invited (the one who loves attention and who loves Cartier). He says that he's not an attention seeker and that's why Cartier seems over the top for him personally. He's more a Reykiavic eyes kind of guy who likes his glasses well made and understated. What is surprising to me personally is Robert saying over and over again that Reykiavic Eyes are the best glasses in the world. I mean they don't enhance one's appearance in any significant way, very close to not wearing glasses at all.
True
@@blackcat9100bro has a cartier watch, I thought glasses would’ve been a given lol
I really like the Ahlem NY lens colour on you! Maybe they look different in person but I think they are great.
Happy New Year Robert for 2024...
I've counted up my collection and have approx 8 - 9 pairs. A long way behind but I'm playing catch up.... Hope to see you all at The Spectacle Factory over the next few months. Got a couple of projects I'm hoping to achieve..... An aviator and a rimless.....
Keep making these videos...👓🕶️😎 👌👍
We're so glad you've enjoyed the video and we can't wait to start on these new projects - interested to see what you'll choose!
I would go with a green gradient tint for the Ahlem’s. I noticed a small bit of green on the temple ends and green goes really well with gold.
I couldn't agree more, green and gold would make the ultimate pairing. Contact us if you'd like your own custom pair at... www.thespectaclefactory.com/v-contact
Yes! Such a great video. Each time I watch your videos I find myself wondering, would it be okay to ask Robert the details of the glasses he's wearing because man! They're so on point, cool and they fit him so well
Thanks! And you can always ask me
Love those barton perreira. I have the jude in my collection 😎
Good choice!
We also would love to see a sunglasses collection too
I really like the Alum New York. I do agree and think they’re a little too “pink” have you considered a lavender tint? Or green?
Your so cool sending love from a new Zealand sunglasses collector
Why don't you book a virtual consultation with us and we'll help you create a one of a kind pair of sunglasses custom to you. Contact us at... www.thespectaclefactory.com
The Porsche design ones are cool. I love the lens colour and I love the Reykjavik Eyes range, I love mine.
Good taste 😉
Every pair is Awesome! No favorites! Thanks Robert for another lit video!
Appreciate it!
Happy New Year to everyone at TSF! Question...I'm in the States and just got a pair of JMM's latest release, the LUCKNOW in the black fade. My prescription was updated right around Christmas and I'd be interested in talking with you all about what we could do with lenses for the frame. What's the best way to get off square one? Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Hi, why don't you book a free virtual consultation with myself and we can go through all of the different options that would be best for you. Book here at... www.thespectaclefactory.com/v-contact
Hi Rob. Wondering, do you reglaze the frames as your prescription changes or do you just keep them as they are? Great collection!
I tend to keep them as they are unless it's a pair I wear a lot
28:43 What percentage of sun do they block out? And what percentage of sun does it let in?
Absolutely. Kept on waiting for him to show mine and his favourite Cartier spectacles which he owns. Very surprising. The best frame I liked was CAZAL 602. Robert, could I know where to get them and how much do they cost?
Hi, we have them in stock here at The Spectacle Factory, contact us if you'd like to get your own pair. We also offer free virtual consultations if you'd like some advise on choosing the best frames and lenses for you. Visit...

You mentioned the drive safe lenses in the JF Rey, I'm not familiar with that. Could you give a little more information on them? Thanks,
czcams.com/video/eTVThSyQAWs/video.html
Yeah, agree with marcusdesilva's comment on the Ahlem rose tinted lens... everything before it was really a snoozefest until this pair... not sure why you feel it doesn't match your complexion because it's the only pair up to that point (other than the JF Rey's square/circle frame) that stood out.. but great collection!
Thanks! Maybe I need to wear them with more confidence
I thought the grand finale was gonna be a pair of Cartiers 🙃
Sorry to disappoint 😅
Nice looking Porsche 😀
Thanks 😉
the Ahlem New York, is that Peony Gold or Champagne?
Also I think a more blush rosetta pink (like cotton candy) or olive green would suit your complexion better
Champagne. Olive green sounds interesting
hi, im so confused. In some videos you have gradient tint in other videos you have a full yellow tint or blue tint.
How do i know which color tint and whether i should have full color tint or a gradient tint? If i can only have 1 pair of tinted glasses as an all day everyday pair, what would you suggest?
I work inside at a hotel resort and then i stock the hotel guests mini bar, do id be looking at paper at the room numbers.
Sometimes in the holidays ill help housekeeping strip the beds and pick up towels.
I dont work on a computer but at home i do like to scroll on my tablet and ive picked up sewing for a hobby.
I just wanted to tell you my daily activity so you can help suggest me a tint or gradient tint and which color.
Also, can you polarise normal inside glasses? Or polarise is only for sunglasses? Thank you 😊
You should book a consultation with me, and I can give you personal recommendations - the link to book is in the video description.
I actually think the red tint on the Ahlem looks exquisite on you.
Perhaps your overall wardrobe isn't in keeping with the esthetic of the red tint?
Thanks Marcus. That's given me food for thought
Please can you say what if any! is the best tint for night driving ?? Modern car lights are so bright its hazardous they are so dazzling.

Guys im new to this. Are YSL sunglasses any good? I really like the sl309M on me
I wonder if all of your glasses are actual prescription lenses? Or do you have some non-optical sunglasses you wear with contact lenses? (I like this when I do sports and wear lenses).
(6:15 in the video) If you want a reddish tint, but not too red vision, try Enchroma's "indoor" eyeglass lenses. These look reddish from the outside, but enhance all colors. For outside, try the Enchroma "outdoor deutan" sun lens. Color will NEVER be the same!
Rob one of best collection , one thing confuses me with drive safe and smart life can someone combine them for one pair of glass? eg if i want a pair of glass with drive safe ; blue light fotofusion x with any tint can i have it ? it looks to to me drive safe are another type of lenses like smartlife .

@@thespectaclefactory I already had one with you Rob I’m Tahir . But still got the question about drive safe and smart life .
@robert is that a new Cartier Tank you are wearing? solar beat?
I believe it is.
Probably the Luca de Stael leather frames. The Gast Mente also.
Best unobtrusive tint for indoor computer work with LED lighting all day?
Black or brown 20%
nice video
Thanks for watching
Would you say that most JF rey pairs are not so comfortable to wear?
In my experience, although I love them yes most are uncomfortable
I really wish you were local, it’s a shame there is nobody around here that is passionate about eyewear, something one wears everyday that is part of their face, instead it’s people looking at their phone who can’t wait to get off work.

Hi Robert, when your prescription changes it’s gonna cost you a fortune in lenses… come to think of it, mine will too… lol
😂😂lets hope are eyes stay the same
