These Gucci sunglasses feature a black frame, grey tinted lenses and gold-tone Gucci logo detailing on the temples. Presented in very good condition with small scratches to the lenses, they are an elegant choice for sunny city days, weekend getaways or adding a polished finish to everyday looks.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What do the size numbers 54 x 19 x 145 mean? A: These measurements refer to lens width, bridge width and temple length in millimetres. On this pair, that means 54 mm lenses, a 19 mm bridge and 145 mm arms. If you already own sunglasses that fit well, compare the numbers printed inside the arm for the easiest fit check.
Q: What style are these Gucci sunglasses? A: This pair features a black full-rim acetate frame, grey tinted lenses and gold-tone Gucci logo detailing on the temples. The silhouette is a slim cat-eye style that gives a polished, slightly lifted look.
Q: Do these sunglasses offer UV protection? A: The GG1170S 001 model is commonly listed by eyewear retailers as offering 100% UV protection. As with any pre-owned sunglasses, the listed condition should also be considered when assessing everyday wear.
Q: What condition are these sunglasses in? A: They are listed in Very Good condition overall. The lenses have small scratches, the inside shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: Can the small lens scratches be polished out? A: Usually, it is best not to try home remedies on luxury lenses. Toothpaste, baking soda and other DIY methods can damage coatings or tints. If the scratches bother you in use, an optician can advise whether lens replacement is a better option.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This pair comes with a box, dust bag and polishing cloth. Everything included with the item is shown in the product information for this listing.
Q: How can I check the model details on the frame? A: Authentic Gucci eyewear typically has the model code and size information engraved on the inside of the temple arm. For this pair, the style reference is GG1170S and the colour code is 001, matching the black and grey combination shown in the listing.
Q: How should I care for and store these sunglasses? A: Rinse off dust before wiping the lenses, then use a clean microfibre or polishing cloth. Avoid tissues, clothing and harsh cleaners, and store the sunglasses in their case or dust bag when not in use. Keep them away from prolonged heat and direct sunlight during storage.
Q: Are these authentic? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, construction, branding and model markings. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell.
