- Longer wear: up to nine hours of battery life and professionally adjustable temple tips.

Classic Aviator, updated for connected life
The Aviator keeps the pilot-frame look while bringing capture, calls and voice help into the glasses you are already wearing. Open-ear listening leaves your ears free for your surroundings. The vintage-inspired Milky Warm Beige and Transitions Brown option celebrates 90 years of the Ray-Ban Aviator; its limited availability makes the selected configuration especially important when ordering.
