The frame is constructed from black composite plastic with matching temples. The bridge features white printed markings stating PRESIDENT on the left and 2.5X COATED on the right. The device operates via individual eyepiece focusing using knurled metal rings on each barrel, which are marked with white linear scales and a red index mark for calibration. The frame is fitted with two adjustable black plastic nose pads.

Frame width: 14 cm.


Condition report:

The frame exhibits minor surface scuffing and light scratches consistent with handling and age. The coated optics appear clear and free from significant damage or cracks, although light surface dust is visible. The mechanical focusing rings and hinges remain functional.
