Highlights
The original Miami Vice icon — the 1984 Bausch & Lomb Wayfarer 5024, the exact style that defined Don Johnson’s signature look on the show.
Produced during the height of the series, this hand‑polished tortoise shell acetate frame captures the bold, cinematic energy of 1980s Miami. With its original BL‑etched G‑15 mineral glass lenses and unmistakable 80s silhouette, this is one of the most culturally significant Wayfarer models ever made.
This pair has been professionally cleaned, polished, and lightly restored in Miami while preserving its authentic vintage character.
