The latest in the luxury auto industry is to tie-up with a designer label or tech big-wig and unveil a new product to sweep their fans off their feet. We earlier spoke about Acer’s new Limited Edition Liquid E Ferrari smartphone and this time its Maybach elite eye gear that caught our attention.
The German automaker has teamed up with eyewear specialist IVKO to take further its business in lifestyle products. The range of stylish glasses are known to be fashioned out of materials like lacquered wood, leather, natural horn, carbon fiber, titanium, and 18-karat white, yellow, and rose gold. These hand-crafted glasses will have some details modeled after the auto makers themselves like the arms of the frames will have the Maybach logo whereas the metal will bring out the door sill panels. Also the piano lacquer on the wood and carbon fiber arms will emulate the finish of the trim strips of the Maybachs’ interior.
The ready to eye-wear collection is available for a price range of $1,550-$2,150 which offers eight sunglass models in nine colors in addition to 10 spectacle frames in a half dozen shades. There is also individual collection which can be customized to customer’s specifications for a price of about $18,000 which covers an exhaustive option of 18-karat gold frames appointed with your choice of 19 varieties of natural horn, wood, and wood/carbon fiber combinations plus uptoto 10 different tints for the precision lenses, either smoke or rosy. It just doesn’t seem to stop here. The makers will complete the bespoke eye-gear, one could even get their names etched on the inside of one of the arms, while the Maybach logo outside will continue to speak for you amongst the haves-not.
