Mr. Sexy needs a frame!

**optilady1** · 03-30-2011, 12:12 PM

Ok, I'm at a loss. I've got a very large gentleman who insists he needs a double bridge semi-rimless frame measuring 56-18 with a :drop:47 B. I've searched through my catalogues and I can't find anything. He's currently wearing this style frame, but needs a new one, and of course there aren't any indication of brand. Any ideas?

The Autoflex 17 comes in a 57-17 with a 47 B. Close enough.

You really should check out the XXL line from A&A, they have a bunch made just for him - large A, smaller B, and long temples.

But wait! I don't need any frames as the title says.:bbg:

1+ on the XXL We've had them for about 3 months and any patient who walks saying I have a big head we go straight to the Cazal (high end) or XXL on the lower end.

Chesterfield has an XL line that we use for those situations and sometimes Sean John but with them you have to specify you want 150 temples then again you can always put him in a silhouette and customize the lenses

If it's semi rimless you can modify the B demension to fit.

yeah that's true, but I'm concerned that his overly worrywart-ness would require him to see what the finished product looked like. It would probably be the easiest way to go about the whole thing though.

Silver Dollar Vince. It has a 56-18, with a "B" of 47.

+1 on the XL from Chesterfield. I've sold several of those, they're nice frames.

The Chesterfield XL frames work great for our practice.

So I ordered Mr. Sexy the Autoflex 17, and he likes it, although is worried the B might be too small :). I think he's going to order. Thanks for all the superb help my friends.
