These Tom Ford Bruce sunglasses feature a black and tortoiseshell frame, dark tinted lenses and gold-tone hardware. In very good condition with light traces of use, they are an elegant choice for city days, holiday escapes 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 size are these Tom Ford Bruce sunglasses? A: This pair is marked 61 x 12 x 145, which means a 61 mm lens width, 12 mm bridge, and 145 mm temple length. In practice, that gives the Bruce a bold pilot-style fit with generous coverage.
Q: What do the frame measurements 61 x 12 x 145 mean for fit? A: The first number is the lens width, the second is the bridge width, and the third is the temple length. A 61 mm lens is on the larger side, so this model usually suits those who prefer a statement look or who already wear medium to wide frames comfortably.
Q: What colour and finish does this pair have? A: This pair features a black and tortoiseshell frame with dark tinted lenses and gold-tone hardware. It offers a classic Tom Ford look with a slightly retro pilot feel.
Q: Are these sunglasses polarised? A: Model code 05A is commonly listed as a non-polarised version. That means the lenses provide sun protection, but they are not specifically designed to reduce glare in the same way as polarised lenses.
Q: Can these sunglasses be fitted with prescription lenses? A: Tom Ford sunglasses are commonly offered with prescription-lens services by specialist eyewear retailers, so this frame style is generally suitable for reglazing. As this is a second-hand pair, we recommend asking your optician to inspect the frame before fitting new lenses.
Q: Will the Bruce shape suit my face shape? A: The Bruce is a large pilot frame, which is often chosen for its flattering, easy-to-wear silhouette. It tends to work especially well if you like oversized sunglasses or usually find that smaller frames feel too narrow.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item comes with a box and case. Everything included with the purchase is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: What condition are these sunglasses in? A: They are listed in Very Good condition with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful previous wear.
Q: Where were these sunglasses made? A: The country of origin label states Italy. This is also consistent with how Tom Ford eyewear is commonly produced for this model family.
Q: How should I care for pre-owned Tom Ford sunglasses? A: Clean them gently with a microfibre cloth, store them in the case when not in use, and avoid leaving them in direct heat or loose inside a bag. Careful storage helps protect both the frame finish and the lenses over time.
Q: How do you check authenticity? A: We authenticate luxury items through detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, model markings, and overall consistency. Tom Ford eyewear is also commonly identified by branded details and inner-arm markings, which are part of the verification process.
