OMEGA has its own official sunglasses collection, developed in partnership with the Italian eyewear company Marcolin. The Lamborghini name in eyewear belongs to Tonino Lamborghini, a lifestyle brand that sells both sunglasses and optical frames. There is no joint OMEGA and Lamborghini eyewear line. The two names are easy to mix up, so this guide treats them as separate brands with separate design directions.
Which brand is which
- OMEGA is the watch brand. Its eyewear is an OMEGA sunglasses collection made with Marcolin, and the sources reviewed here describe it as sunglasses only.
- Tonino Lamborghini is a lifestyle brand with its own eyewear line. Its official pages cover sunglasses and optical frames. The sources reviewed here do not present this line as a product of the sports car maker.
OMEGA sunglasses
The Marcolin partnership
OMEGA’s sunglasses are made in partnership with Marcolin. In OMEGA’s own press release, the brand describes the collaboration this way: “In partnership with the Italian eyewear company Marcolin, OMEGA Sunglasses are notable for their fine materials and handcrafted attention to detail.” The partnership is documented in a Marcolin release, hosted on Marcolin’s website under a 2016 upload path. The release’s own date is not stated in the source material, so treat 2016 as the upload year rather than a confirmed announcement date.
The 2021 expansion
OMEGA’s press release, dated 29 June 2021 and titled “New Summer Styles In the OMEGA Sunglasses Collection,” says 23 new styles were added that summer. This is a figure about how many models the collection gained in one release. It is not a measure of market size or sales.
The design claim
OMEGA says the eyewear carries signature features of its watches into the sunglasses. This is the brand’s stated design intent. No independent testing of lens performance, durability or comfort was found in the sources, so treat the watch-inspired design as a description of intent rather than a verified performance claim.

Tonino Lamborghini eyewear
Sunglasses and optical frames
Tonino Lamborghini’s official eyewear storefront at toninolamborghinieyewear.com/en/ and its lifestyle page at lamborghini.it/pages/lifestyle-essentials both cover sunglasses and optical frames. That split matters when you shop. A sunglasses model is designed to be worn as sun eyewear. An optical frame is the category used for prescription lenses. The sources do not establish whether any specific model is suitable for a prescription, so confirm lens compatibility for each model with the seller or an optician before you buy.
Models the storefront highlights
The official storefront highlights the TLX 100 and TLX 005 models. The sources do not give their frame materials, lens specifications or prices, so check those details on the product page before you compare them.

Design cues
The brand describes its eyewear in terms of bold, mechanical-inspired styling, a sculpted identity and attention to frame construction. The eyewear page states: “The new Tonino Lamborghini eyewear collection redefines the codes of contemporary lifestyle.” That is the brand’s own marketing language, not an independent assessment.
The MIDO 2024 range
In a press announcement dated 29 January 2024, “The Bull Look: The Exclusive Tonino Lamborghini Eyewear Collection at MIDO 2024,” the brand described men’s and unisex sunglasses and optical models. The frames were described in metal, acetate, steel and other treatments. These details belong to that 2024 announcement. They do not describe the brand’s complete current catalog, so a model you see in a store or online may not appear in it.

The Polar partnership
On 5 February 2025, Tonino Lamborghini announced a new eyewear licensing collaboration with Polar, as set out in its announcement at lamborghini.it/it/blogs/news/polar-eyewear-tonino-lamborghini-new-partnership. The announcement does not show that every current frame is made by Polar. It also does not show which products are sold in a given market. Check the manufacturer and the availability of a specific model before you assume a link to Polar.

Choosing between them
- If you want sunglasses that carry a watch brand’s design language, OMEGA’s collection is the more direct match.
- If you need a frame for prescription lenses, look only at Tonino Lamborghini’s optical models, and confirm each one’s lens compatibility before buying.
- If you want bold, statement-style sunglasses, Tonino Lamborghini’s sunglasses range is the category to browse.
Buyer checklist
- Model name and brand: Confirm the model name printed on the frame and match it to the brand’s official product page.
- Seller authorization: Buy from a seller the brand names as an authorized retailer. Marketplace listings can show the right brand name while being unauthorized or mislabeled, so check the seller’s identity before you buy.
- Current availability and price: Prices and stock change. The sources reviewed for this guide do not confirm current prices or availability for any model, so check them on a live retailer page.
- Lens protection: Ask the seller to state the lens specification, including UV protection, in writing for the exact model. Do not rely on a general claim.
- Fit: Compare the lens width, bridge width and temple length printed on your current frame with the model’s listed dimensions. Measure before ordering.
- Prescription use: If you need prescription lenses, confirm with an optician that the frame can take them, and do not assume that an optical model is available in your prescription.
