Story & heritage
AO presents Times as an authentic revival of an iconic 1950s heritage design, recreated from original 1950s designs. Its spearhead décor is specifically called out by AO as a heritage symbol.
Where AO’s aviators are instrument-like, Times is the brand’s mid-century acetate counterpoint: bookish, compact and deliberately period-correct.
Materials & craft
The current Times is handcrafted from premium acetate, made in the USA from premium global components, and offered in 47 and 49 mm sizing with polarized or non-polarized lens options.
How to choose & style
Let Times stay small and precise. Tortoise is the natural archival choice, clear feels lighter and more optical, and a honey frame gives the 1950s shape a warmer summer read.
