Zenith 104

Zenith 104 Prescription Glasses

There is something friendly and approachable about a round frame. The Zenith 104 is a men’s full-rim metal round frame, sized 50-20-140, in Black & Gun, Grey & Silver or Khaki Green. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Zenith collection.

3 colours to choose from

Black & Gun. Black & Gun pairs black with gun. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

Grey & Silver. Grey & Silver pairs grey with silver. It goes with almost everything and never draws too much attention.

Khaki Green. Khaki Green keeps things simple. It brings out brown, hazel and green eyes.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

Why you will like it

Round frames soften angular features, so they are a great match for square and heart-shaped faces. Because the colour is see-through, the frame has a light, glowing look.

The tortoiseshell arms pair nicely with the front and give the frame a relaxed feel. Slim metal arms keep the frame light and add a polished touch. The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

The Zenith 104 is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend. For a frame you will reach for daily, the Zenith 104 is a solid choice. The Zenith 104 also makes a handy spare pair for the car or the office.

How to wear it

Short hair and a clean shave make the frame shape stand out; with longer hair or a beard it reads as more relaxed.

How it fits

At 50mm per lens, it is on the smaller side, which is ideal if most frames feel too wide. The 20mm bridge is wider than average, which suits a broader nose bridge. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 120mm.

Not sure about sizing? Compare these numbers with the ones on the inside arm of a pair that fits you well. A difference of two or three millimetres or less usually means a similar fit.

Lens options for the Zenith 104

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• Single vision: one clear prescription across the whole lens.
• Bifocal: distance on top, a reading segment below.
• Progressive: smooth vision from near to far in one lens, no line.
• Ready readers: off-the-shelf magnification for books and screens.

If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night.

Ordering online is easier than you think

All you need is a current prescription from your optometrist and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Your PD is often written on your prescription; if it is not, ask your optometrist for it. Pick your colour, choose your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are not sure about sizing, compare the measurements above with a pair you already own. It only takes a minute and saves any guesswork.

Made for you in our UK lab

Once you have picked your colour and lens type and entered your prescription and PD, our UK optical lab makes your lenses, fits them into your Zenith 104 and sends the finished pair to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Clean the lenses with lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before you put them down, and keep them in a hard case when they are not on your face. Our guide to caring for your lenses covers the rest.

FAQs

Is it a small frame?

Yes. With 50mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

Is the Zenith 104 comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes. It is a lightweight frame, and a thinner lens for a stronger prescription keeps the weight down even further.

Will it suit a wider nose bridge?

Yes. The 20mm bridge is wider than most frames.

Do you make the lenses yourselves?

Yes. Every pair is made to order in our UK optical lab, where your lenses are cut to your prescription and fitted into your frame.
