Versace,
mostly through the lenses.

Largely eyewear, men's and women's, with occasional shoes, a watch or a bag. Frames checked before they are listed.

Currently holding sunglasses and eyeglass frames, mostly, with occasional shoes and accessories. Browsing opens San Diego Jewelry Buyers, my own store, which is where the listings live.

Versace here is an eyewear collection more than anything else, and that is the honest description rather than the flattering one. If you came looking for handbags this is the wrong page and the handbag category is the right one.

Eyewear is the least risky way into a designer house and the easiest place to overpay. The same frame is boutique money new and a fraction of that a season later.

How we check it

What we look at on a Versace.

01

Model and colour codes

The code printed inside the temple has to correspond to a frame that was actually produced in that colourway. Fakes routinely invent combinations.

02

The Medusa and Greca detailing

Depth, symmetry and finish of the Medusa head. It is the most copied element on the brand and the most consistently copied badly.

03

Hinges and lens marks

Hinge construction and action, plus the etched marks on the lenses where the model carries them.

What holds its value

Straight, not flattering.

  • Eyewear is a wearable purchase rather than an investment. Buy the pair you will actually wear.
  • Original case and papers help but do not transform the number.
  • Condition is nearly all of it. Scratched lenses are most of the value gone.

Questions

The ones I get asked.

Are these authentic Versace sunglasses?
Yes. Every frame is checked in house before listing, including the model and colour codes, the Medusa detailing, hinges and lens markings.
Do the sunglasses come with a case?
Where the original case and papers arrived with the frame, they go out with it. Each listing says what is included.
