Retro Persol 714SM - Steve McQueen - Black Sunglasses
The Inside Story
PROGRESSION SESSION
In 1968, Steve McQueen made the Persol 714 Series famous by wearing them in the movie The Thomas Crown Affair. The design was introduced just a few years earlier and marked a progression of the 649 model, as it was the first-ever-folding glasses.
This retro edition is paying homage to the icon and is in a mint used condition. It is a wide model (PO0714SM 95/S3 54-21) with blue gradient Polar lenses and a black acetate frame that was made in Italy. Comes with original case, box, cloth and papers/hangtag.
We present these sunglasses as part of our exclusive Heyday Collection.
Stated price is excluding VAT (no VAT on used and vintage itmes)

Handmade essentials
Our watch essentials are handmade in Italy. Each item is an individual piece with its own structure and colour which may differ slightly from the one on display in our online shop.
Care instruction
Our watch essentials are made of the finest natural materials. If they are made of leather you can be sure there is no chemical coating or waxing on top, which is why they are so very soft and full of character. This natural quality also causes aging of the material as time passes. Every item gets its own individual patina, which is something we love. Please don’t treat the leather with oil or wax as it ruins the whole nature of the product.
This also comes with a warning: avoid direct contact with water, as it may cause stains. We recommend not watering plants next to these watch essentials.
