Description: RECENTLY I REDISCOVERED THESE BEAUTIES FOUND IN A OLD SHOE BOX DURING A RECENT MOVE. AS NOTED ABOVE, I PURCHASED THESE 5621'S BACK IN 1981 WHILE I ATTENDED COLLEGE IN LONDON, ENGLAND. I LOVED THE ALPINE WHITE TRIM WHICH MATCHED A FRIENDS 911 CARRERAS COLOR. IT NOW SEEMS THAT EANONS AGO, CARRERA, ONCE LOCATED IN AUSTRIA, MADE A PACT WITH PORSCHE TO OFFER THEIR 5621 AND 5623 (LARGE AND SMALL AVIATOR FRAMES) WITH THREE CLASSIC PORSCHE CAR COLORS. THESE ALPINE WHITE FRAMES, GUARDS RED AND A BRIGHT BLUE (WHICH I FORGET THE "FORMAL NAME" THEREOF) WERE ALL OFFERED BY CARRERA. PAG (PORSCHE, GERMANY) SENT TO CARRERA LITERS OF THE THREE PAINT COLORS TO BE USED IN/ON THESE AVIATOR FRAMES. WHAT YOU SEE BEFORE YOU IS AN ORIGINAL OFFERING OF THE ALPINE WHITE, LARGE 5621 AVIATOR FRAME. I LOST THE ORIGINAL BOX AND THE CORRESPONDING CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (C/A) WHICH ACCOMPANIED ALL OF THESE VINTAGE "pd" FRAMES. BUT, I STILL HAVE ALL OF WHAT WAS CONTAINED WITHIN THE ORIGINAL "pd" HARD STORAGE CASE, WHICH IS THE FRAMES, TWO (2) SET OF ORIGINAL "PORSCHE DESIGN" LENS AND THE REMOVABLE FELT INSERT WHICH IS USED TO STORE AND PROTECT THE SECOND PAIR OF LENS WHEN NOT IN USE (ON THE FRAMES). NOT ONLY DID CARRERA TIP THE FRAMES LENS PLATE WITH ALPINE WHITE PAINT, THEY ALSO ADDED COLOR MATCHED ALPINE WHITE EAR/TEMPLE FEET. INCLUDED WITH THESE VINTAGE "pd" 5621 AVIATOR FRAMES, YOU WILL GET THE TWO (2) SETS OF ORIGINAL/AUTHENTIC "pd" LENS. THE FIRTS SET OF LENS IS THAT OF A SOLID DARK BROWN/GREY TINT WHICH ARE AS CLOSE TO NOS (NEW OLD STOCK) AS ONE WOULD HOPE FOR. I SEE NO SCRATCHES, POLISHING SWIRLS OR NICKS ANYWHERE! IN ALL HONESTY, I DO NOT RECALL EVER USING THESE SOLID TINTED LENS AS I ALWAYS USED THESE SUNGLASSES BOTH INDOORS AND OUTDOORS. THE SECOND SET OF LENS ARE GRADIENT IN DESIGN (DARK ON TOP, FADING OUT TO CLEAR AS YOU APPROACH THE BOTTOM OF THE LENS). THESE HAVE A MEDIUM TINT OF A BROWNISH/GREEN TINT. AS WITH THE ABOVE SOLID LENS, YOU HAVE NO SCRATCH VISIBLE, NO POLISHING SWIRLS AND NO CHIPS. THESE LENS, LIKE THE FIRST PAIR OF LENS, I AM SURE MOST FOLKS WOULD CONSIDER AS NOS (NEW OLD STOCK) DUE TO THEIR SHOWCASE OVERALL CONDITION/SHAPE. REMEMBER, THESE ARE FROM THE EARLY 1980'S!! THE FRAMES ARE A POLISHED GOLD WITH THE ALPINE WHITE COLOR PAINT PLACED AROUND THE FRONT OUTER SECTION OF THE FRAMES WHICH HOLD THE LENS IN PLACE. THE GOLD SECTION OF THESE FRAMES (TO INCLUDE THE TEMPLE ARMS AND NOSE BRIDGE) ARE PERFECT WITH NO TARNISH, DISCOLORATION, PITS OR CORROSION. THE NOSE BRIDGE SWINGS OPEN AND CLOSED WITH NO EFFORT AND THE PRONGS ALIGNS PERFECTLY WITH THE LENS & FRAME (SO YOU WILL HAVE NO CHIPPING AROUND THE LENS), WHICH IS KEY FOR THE REMOVAL AND LOCKING DOWN OF THE LENS ONTO THE FRAME. THE WHITE TEMPLE/EAR FEET ARE NOT "CHEWED" UP AS I NEVER LIKED TO EAT OR CHEW ON MY SUNGLASSES! THEY ARE NOT DISCOLORED EITHER .... THESE TOO ARE ORIGINAL TO THESE FRAMES. ALL-IN-ALL, YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO VIEW THESE AS NON-NOS (NEW OLD STOCK) AS THEY ARE THAT CLEAN! PLEASE TAKE THE ADDED TIME TO REVIEW ALL 24 OF MY PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK AND I WILL RESPOND AS SOON AS I READ YOUR MESSAGE. THESE VINTAGE "PORSCHE DESIGN" SUNGLASSES WILL BE SHIPPED DOMESTICALLY VIA THE USPS PRIORITY MAIL AND THE POSTAGE WILL BE PURCHASED VIA EBAY (SO THE TRACKING NUMBER WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY PLACED INTO YOUR SALES RECORD). INTERNATIONALLY, EBAY HAS UPGRADED THEIR GSP (GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM) AND THESE SUNGLASSES WILL BE SHIPPED THROUGH THIS NEWLY DEVELOPED/INTRODUCED SYSTEM (IT'S SIMI-TRACKABLE WITH CONFIRMED DELIVERY). EBAY WILL CALCULATE THE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING COST AND ASSUME THE RESPONSIBILITY OF IT'S DELIVERY ON THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE. I WILL SHIP THESE SUNGLASSES TO THEIR DOMESTIC SHIPPING HUB AND THERE, THEY (EBAY) WILL TAKE OVER.

SOON YOU WILL REALIZE THAT YOU HAD NO IDEA THAT THEY OFFERED SUCH A WIDE ARRAY OF COOL ITEMS (AS I HAVE ONLY ABOUT 300+ DIFFERENT PORSCHE AND "PORSCHE DESIGN" ITEMS OFFERED AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND THIS DOESN'T EVEN SCRATCH THE SURFACE OF WHAT THEY OFFER!). I FIND THE EASIEST AND FASTEST WAY TO VIEW ONES FULL LINE OF LISTINGS IS TO LOCATE THAT LITTLE "RED" OR "BLUE" DOOR A TOP THIS PAGE, OR LOOK FOR THE "VISIT STORE" LINK, THIS IS NEAR MY SELLERS NAME AND FEEDBACK TALLY. ONCE LOCATED, ALL YOU NEED DO IS TO LEFT CLICK ONCE ON IT AND THIS IN TURN, WILL "OPEN" THE VIRTUAL DOOR TO MY STORE! GET READY TO SEE SOME PRETTY COOL STUFF....
