Which vid, the EU or US? The EU he wears 519 I think.
610 are much nicer than 611 in my opinion, 611 are too large for my face but 610 are perfect
Ah, I prefer not to remember the existance of that entire video.
Thank you Nathan...WOW - that collection might be even better than mine :O
Thank you Nathan...
Some models are still missing to be absolutly perfect :
- Diesel K-Mart
- Mikli 3214 in Orange and in Yellow Glasses
- 1535 in Red/Pink
- Gigli 191 in Green
- Gigli 226 in Blue
- 611 in Red if they exist ?
- 8025 in black matt arms
- And maybe real Fly Shades... But this last model is just for the expo and not to be wear so...
Because I do wear most of them often.
The other point is that most of the missing models are impossible to find like the K-Mart, or the 191 in green... Others are too expensive like the 3214 in Orange that is the reason why I did not try my chance when they were on ebay last year.
And do not worry Nathan, some of you on this forum are really Jedi Master of Bono's sunglasses compared to me
You already have 611 in red, since you got the "pink" ones. The fact that they appear SO red in videos like the US stuck in a moment is just because of lighting.
Dommage... 611 should have been great in ruby...
Doesn't Bono wear 610 Rose in the Suck In A Moment... video? I'm sure they are

Hi there!
Wow that is a cool collection and nicely displayed!
I`ve got mine on a shelf in my spare room but all still in the cases, lol! When i`m in the mood to wear a certain pair i grab them and put them in my car!
I`ve got most of his glasses from the different era`s, but mainly just in one colour (some in a couple of colours, such as Mikli`s and Armani 9285`s)
I`ve actually got the black Mikli 3214`s with orange lenses (Popmart, Mexico City) as well as Gigli`s in green (Walk On video) and just the other day, Bvlgari 8025`s with Matte Black arms and light grey lenses (U2 360 current legs)
I got the latter from United Shades, who are such a pleasure to deal with. As i first got them with a scratched case, so they sent me another one totally free (including shipping)
It was so by chance that i found the Mikli`s and a cool little story...
Shortly after the Popmart tour here in Melbourne, Australia i wandered into a shop called Eyeworks, where i had purchased my Cutler and Gross sunnies, and i spotted the Mikli`s with orange arms and orange lenses and recognized them straight away.
Anyway after purchasing them i asked the guy if they could order other colours (as i wanted the black/orange ones) and they did. He said that when U2 were in Melbourne someone from their employ were recommended to go to this particular shop to get some of Bono`s pairs fixed, so he said while they were in the store being fixed he wrote down the model numbers, and so that`s why they had them! it was just by chance that i walked into the shop for no particular reason that day and found them!
The Gigli`s, he (same store) had never seen or sold them before so i took in a picture of them and he actually organized the sales rep` from Gigli to meet me there one day and they let me choose the style and colour i wanted, which was great!
So i got my Cutler`s, Mikli`s and Bvlgari (519`s) all there. As you would know, most of his glasses from HTDAAB era till now have been far more easier to find!
I love my collection though and could never think of parting with any of them.
Actrually, can you help me...did Bono ever wear the brownie/orangie type Bvlgari 519`s, as that`s the colour i have. The picture i gave the store was a bit unclear, and the Electrical Storm video is almost black and white, so it`s hard to tell from that too. I was pretty sure this was the colour though. Did i get the right ones? Still unsure to this day...he he!
Hope i haven`t bored you with my stories! And nice to see other obsessed U2 fans!!
Cheers,
Mikie.
Please can you post pics of your Mikli's with black arms and orange lenses. I have never seen them before apart from on Bono. Also Bono did wear the brown 519, I have seen pics - I'm sure Moonwalker will have some
Thanks guys!yes here are some pics with the brown 519 :
Great pics of the Brown 519 Moonwalker - do u have any of the 519 green which I bought from you? Lime the brown, he didn't wear them much but they are so cool! I love the black clip, so dynamic

Hello everyone, I have just received my 611 in dark blue 103. I think that they are the model Bono wears in the Élévation vid when he plays bad Bono... They look almost black... That's amazing...

I think Bad Bono wears the Green 611 in that video as the clip is black. I have green 519 and they are almost black when worn.
