Our take
James Oro Reserve Bordeaux Navigator is a mixed-material frame from James Oro, listed at $185 on www.jamesoro.com in the Reserve Bordeaux colorway. The Navigator family: a club-master style with square lenses, thick acetate brow and metal lower rims; 146 mm wide. The store lists it at 146.3mm across the front; our size guide explains what that means on your face. Lens width is 48mm.
On price it sits towards the top of the James Oro range. It suits anyone who wants metal detailing without the weight of a full-acetate front, or an acetate temple for a more secure fit.

Questions about the James Oro Reserve Bordeaux Navigator
What size is the James Oro Reserve Bordeaux Navigator?
The store lists a frame width of 146.3mm. Lens width is 48mm. Compare the frame width with a pair you already own; our size guide explains which widths suit narrow, average and wide faces, and the XL versions of the Titan, Dune, Opus and Authentic II add a few millimetres.
Are the lenses polarized?
Most James Oro frames ship with a standard tinted lens; a polarized lens is offered as a $30 upgrade on some colorways, shown under "Options in stock" above. Clear and blue-light versions are not sunglasses. See our lens guide.
What warranty and returns apply?
James Oro covers manufacturing defects for 365 days from purchase and accepts free US returns or exchanges within 14 days of delivery on unused items in original packaging. Sale items and mystery boxes are final sale, and international orders are final sale except for defects. Details are in our James Oro review.
Can I get prescription lenses in the James Oro Reserve Bordeaux Navigator?
Not from the store directly: James Oro says prescription lenses are available through a partner site linked from its homepage, and its warranty excludes issues connected to prescription lenses. Any optician can also glaze a full-rim acetate or metal frame; rimless and gem-cut frames are harder to re-lens.
Where can I buy the James Oro Reserve Bordeaux Navigator?
Directly from www.jamesoro.com, the brand's own store. FrameNotes does not sell frames.
