The Spanish word for soldier, Soldado is inspired by the productive saltwater flat in Guanaja, Honduras, beneath which lies the monument commemorating where Columbus landed in the 1500s. No soldiers remain, just a long sandy beach and permit and bonefish with saluting tails in the air. Equally stylish on a man or woman, Soldado is like a classic watch: it speaks to the wearer’s appreciation for classic style and time-tested functionality. Whether celebrating the day’s action on the water or enjoying a serene sunset from shore with your arm around the waist of a loved one, the Soldado is your ace.
Quite possibly the most enduring frame style in the world, and still looking good after all these years. Rather than mess with a classic, we’ve just refined it with top-tier hinges and finishes, as well as our polarized lenses with patent pending LAPIS technology to block blue light and glare for enhanced visual acuity. You may tire of the Top Gun quotes—or not—but you’ll never go out of style.
You never know what the day will bring. When the fish are hitting, stay focused; if you can’t spot any action, take a siesta. Named after the infamous flat in Islamorada that’s a magnet for monster tarpon and square groupers, Bales Beach is ready for whatever the day has in store—be it the rush of a dawn fishing mission or casual afternoon tending the grill.
A wrap-around style with additional side coverage built into the design, the Bales Beach is molded with our proprietary, bio-based nylon for a lighter, more durable frame. Its lenses come in six different colors, all featuring polarized lenses with patent pending LAPIS technology which blocks 95% of blue light, as well as durable anti-scratch and oleophobic lens coatings.
