it was bound to happen, after all been using the same frame for a good 8 or so years, really unique one with ends that flex perpendicular and wont break.
making them incredibly comfortable

I broke my Glasses frame, really badly, and I need help to identify the make/model and manufacturer,
what I have done in the meanwhile is get a repair that works, but isn't my exact frame, its from 2 different frames that fitted the grommets,

looks crappy and sits strangely, but I guess works, but does not look right.
yes, I could buy a new frame for 3,5K but at the time I brought these they were 4,5K and lasted me almost 8 years.
with different lenses on them,

the damage is only on the sides (temples) the middle part is unaffected, hence I saved the frame somehow

see pics,

8 years is a long time.

A very good make of glasses frames is either Lindberg or Silhouette. I have two Lindberg frames, use the old as a backup.

yip, I do subscribe to if it aint broke, dont fix it.

but this pair, any idea what it could be?,

optometrists said its usually written on the stems somewhere, mine long since gone.

No idea. Chances are they're no longer being made.
