Frequently Asked Questions
Are Ray-Ban RB3699 sunglasses prescription-ready?
Yes, the Ray-Ban RB3699 sunglasses are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The metal frame can be easily adjusted for a perfect fit with your prescription lenses, and the generous lens height (50mm) provides ample space for multifocal prescriptions. Ray-Ban offers prescription lens options directly, or you can have your optician install custom lenses.
What size should I choose for Ray-Ban 3699 sunglasses?
The Ray-Ban RB3699 is available in two sizes: 56-18-145mm and 59-18-145mm. The first number represents the lens width—56mm offers a standard fit while 59mm provides more generous coverage. These frames are designed with a wide fit and adjustable nose pads, making them particularly well-suited for oval and round face shapes. If you prefer more coverage or have a larger face, choose the 59mm size.
What makes the RB3699 different from classic Ray-Ban Aviators?
The RB3699 features a square/navigator shape rather than the teardrop aviator silhouette, with oversized rims and a more contemporary aesthetic. It has a distinctive double-bridge design with intricate detailing and bi-layered acetate temples, whereas classic Aviators have thinner metal temples. The RB3699 offers a bolder, more modern look with fuller coverage while maintaining the metal construction and adjustable nose pads found in traditional aviator styles.
Do Ray-Ban 3699 sunglasses come with UV protection?
Yes, all Ray-Ban RB3699 sunglasses provide 100% UV protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays. Ray-Ban lenses are engineered to reduce glare and enhance visual clarity while ensuring optimal eye health in various outdoor conditions. Polarized lens options are also available in select colorways for additional glare reduction, particularly beneficial for driving and water activities.
What face shapes work best with the Ray-Ban RB3699?
The Ray-Ban RB3699 is best suited for oval and round face shapes. The square proportions and angular lines help add definition to softer facial contours, while the wide fit and generous coverage provide balanced proportions. The adjustable nose pads allow for customization to ensure comfort across different face structures. Those with narrower faces may prefer the 56mm size for better proportional balance.
Are the Ray-Ban 3699 temples made of metal or acetate?
The Ray-Ban RB3699 features a hybrid construction: the front frame and bridge are made from durable metal (stainless steel), while the temples have bi-layered acetate tips. This combination provides the lightweight strength of metal with the comfort and visual interest of acetate detailing. The acetate temple tips are often available in complementary colors like tortoiseshell or solid black, adding a premium two-tone aesthetic.

Ray-Ban RB3699 vs. Classic Aviators: Which Style Is Right for You?
The Ray-Ban RB3699 represents a contemporary evolution of Ray-Ban's metal frame heritage, blending aviator-inspired elements with modern square proportions. If you're deciding between the RB3699 and other Ray-Ban metal styles, understanding the key differences will help you choose the perfect pair.
RB3699 vs. RB3025 Classic Aviator
The RB3025 Aviator Large Metal is the iconic teardrop design that launched Ray-Ban to fame in 1937. It features a single-bridge construction, thinner metal temples, and that unmistakable pilot shape. The RB3699, by contrast, offers a square/navigator shape with a double-bridge design and bi-layered acetate temple tips. Choose the RB3025 if you want timeless, universally recognized style; choose the RB3699 if you prefer bold, contemporary proportions with more architectural detail. The 3699's oversized square lenses also provide more coverage, making them ideal for those who want a statement frame.
RB3699 vs. RB3625 New Aviator
The RB3625 New Aviator is perhaps the closest comparison—both feature double-bridge designs and acetate temple tips. The key difference? Shape. The RB3625 maintains the classic teardrop aviator silhouette with engraved rivet details, while the RB3699 goes square. The New Aviator also uses a 4 base (flatter) frame, making it better for strong prescriptions, whereas the RB3699 has more curvature. If you love aviators but want modern updates, the RB3625 is your pick. If you're ready to move beyond the aviator shape entirely, the RB3699 offers a fresh, square alternative with similar premium detailing.
Why Choose the RB3699?
The Ray-Ban RB3699 is the ideal choice for customers who want contemporary styling with generous coverage. Its square shape flatters oval and round faces by adding definition, while the double-bridge design and acetate temples elevate it beyond basic metal frames. With full prescription compatibility, adjustable nose pads, and multiple size options (56mm and 59mm), the RB3699 delivers both style and function. It's perfect for those who appreciate Ray-Ban's quality but want a more modern, architectural aesthetic than classic aviators provide.
