R 1000 – an extremely light and resilient plastic – meets with Beta Titanium 153 for the ultimate in strength, lightness, and flexibility. Our new, patent-pending screwless hinges bring a smooth open-close movement within a beautifully designed mechanism. Screws will never again need to be tightened or replaced.
New R 1000 styles feature integrated screw-less hinges – where the hinge mechanism is more incorporated into the front end piece, hiding the barrel from temple-view for a cleaner design.
