You are on the right track! Marty's sunglasses were created by Porsche! They used the aviator design for the prop! I don't anticipate a remake as there are 1,000's of aviator sunglasses out there!

The prescription RBs did not get the script until a few years ago. The new ones do have it, in fact they say "Ray Ban P". I assume the P is for prescription.

Okay, makes sense, all the sunglasses I buy are prescription but also polarized.

Maybe some 80's styled Ray-Bans? |

Either way, those are pretty sweet sunglasses. I wear classic Ray Ban aviators all the time, been through more than a few pairs. It's not that I don't like other brands, its just that the Ray Bans fit my face the best and they go with everything.

Its a moot point Ray Ban only started putting their logo's on the lens in 1998. Before that year, BL was engraved in the lens.

I'm pretty certain that the Rolex logo started showing up while I was still wearing the old etched B-L model. I was really furious about that, as I thought it cheapened the brand.

The white logo on the lens was introduced in late 1982 and subsequently present on all Ray-Ban sunglasses from 1983 onward. |
