Al Jaber Optical unveils the Ray-Ban Spring/Summer 2005 Sun Collection

All models in this collection are products of meticulous, original styling that translates the best of the latest trends into an ever-contemporary look for millions of Ray-Ban wearers around the world.

"Ray-Ban, being the world's best-known eyewear brand and a global leader in the sector, produces only high calibre design of sunglasses and having these type of eyewear products in our stores gives us the edge in offering the best range to our customers" said Mr. Ahmed Jaber, Managing Director of Al Jaber Optical. "We believe that by providing customers regularly with the latest collections will make them keep coming back to our shops to check and get for themselves the up-to-date trends in eyewear. We are indeed privileged to have such a brand like Ray-Ban as a part of our wide selection of optical and sunglasses," adds Mr. Jaber.

The Spring/Summer 2005 Sun Collection stands out with several fashion-inspired models like the three new AVIATOR masks (RB 3250, RB 3251, RB 3243). The range of colours has a typically spring-like freshness and vitality. The classic metal frame is available in optical white, pastel green, candy pink joined by signature Ray-Ban red, which appears in every collection. The traditional Ray-Ban style comes through authentically in the new models for the PREDATOR and SIDESTREET lines. The sports-oriented design combines with cutting-edge technical solutions and extremely comfortable materials.

The new aviator masks
RB3250 (metal)
The broad mask front that characterizes RB3250 is mounted on a sinuous wrap-around metal frame. Modern styling foregrounds slim temple-arms and proportions that will suit even the most delicate face. There are nine up-to-the-minute colour options, including fresh new colours such as pink, green, white and hot red.

RB3251 (metal)
The broad, wrap-around mask front flaunts the chunky personality of this unisex model. Its metal frame and straight top-bar reinforce the message. Modern design and assertive, well-defined corners frame the wearer's face in fashion colours, with white, pink and red options.

RB3243 (combination with metal front and plastic arms)
This model combines a metal front with plastic arms flaunting the distinctive Ray-Ban signature. Clean lines and minimal design are the keynotes of a single-piece mask-type model with well-defined lines. Equally suitable for male and female faces, RB3243 is available in nine colours, from all black to dark grey, white and red.

PREDATOR Line
RB4052 (injection-moulded plastic)
The Predator style is delivered in spades by this injection-moulded plastic design with its sporty, gutsy wrap-around look. Attention to detail combined with pioneering technical advancement, such as the ridged inner surfaces of the tips that deliver a more stable, comfortable fit without compromising the model's clean lines. The arms are chunky to ensure greater protection from sunlight and wind. A metal plaque engraved with the Ray-Ban signature adds a further touch of distinction. The lenses are available in polarised or non-polarised glass. The varied range of colours foregrounds darker tones.

RB3245 (metal)
Sporty design and streamlined styling are the hallmarks of this metal-frame model. The arms are almost entirely covered in soft-touch Hytrel, a material that guarantees a stable, comfortable fit while enhancing the model's gutsy, sports-oriented look. The metal hinge engraved with the Ray-Ban signature is a key feature.

SIDESTREET line
RB3239 (metal)
The Sidestreet line is dedicated to eyewear users who want to have the very latest in fashion, but also demand the quality and attention to technical detail that characterize all of the Ray-Ban collections. Model RB3239 is compact in both lens shape and the lines of the extremely lightweight metal frame. The streamlined front features attractive style-enhancing details, such as flex arms with Hytrel tips in black or matching the lens colour. Made from APX, an advanced polycarbonate, the lenses deliver maximum performance for minimum weight. The colour palette is varied with alluring options that include graded gold mirror lenses matched with steel-colour arms and black contrast tips.

RB4056 (injection-moulded plastic)
A dynamic, complete model in injection-moulded plastic for the wearer who wants technical excellence and a no-nonsense style. Low bulk and original technical solutions are the keynotes. RB4056 focuses on comfort and performance. There are nine colour options, all in darker tones to provide plenty of protection from sunlight.

RB4062 (injection-moulded plastic)
An ultra-feminine wrap-around model with soft, sensuous lines. The chunky arms are stamped with the hallmark Ray-Ban logo. Available in seven colours including the distinctive model in caramel with subtle honey nuances.
