TVR®OPT introduces the all-new TVR®505 Classic Panto 2026 Vintage Collection, now available for Spring/Summer 2026.
From Five-Barrel to Seven-Barrel Hinges traditionally, we favored the five-barrel hinge. However, for this release, we have adopted the signature TVR® seven-barrel hinge to achieve better overall balance.
This update is complemented by our inner cutting technique, which significantly reduces weight. Combined with a refined nose pad distance, the frame offers a more secure fit, minimizes slipping, and delivers an unprecedented level of comfort.

“Pantoscopic” is derived from Latin roots. Combining panto(meaning “all” or “every”) and scopic (“to look at or vie). It translates to “viewing all” or “looking at everything.”
“To us, the Panto shape also symbolizes a longing for the future.” — Eizo Onami

Launching first in Europe, TVR®OPT is proud to introduce the TVR® SERIES 1 DIAMOND CUT 2026 Edition for the Spring/Summer 2026 season.
Originally created by Sawada Yaemon and Yamada Mitsukatsu, the SERIES collection showcases the rare DIAMOND CUT technique.
To complete the DIAMOND CUT, as many as eight additional polishing processes are required. Sawada Yaemon performs the entire procedure himself, making the regular SERIES collection the product with the longest production timeline—approximately 18 to 20 months.

Launching first in Europe, TVR®OPT is proud to introduce the TVR® SERIES 1 DIAMOND CUT 2026 Edition for the Spring/Summer 2026 season.
“For over 50 years, Yamada San has always been like a big brother to me. The memories of inventing the DIAMOND CUT technique together never fades.” Said Sawada Yaemon.
During polishing, the silhouette and edges tend to become rounded—referred to as Marukado (丸角, round edges) in Japanese. For apprentices, the very first lesson is learning how to prevent edges from losing their sharp angles. While high-level craftsmen can control this through years of experience, the DIAMOND CUT exists on an entirely different plane.
“I believe most people cannot fully comprehend how difficult it is to reach this level, yet we can all sense the presence of something born from the pure soul of craftsmanship.” - Onami Eizo, President of TVROPT.

Launching first in Europe, TVR®OPT is proud to introduce the TVR® SERIES 1 DIAMOND CUT 2026 Edition for the Spring/Summer 2026 season.
Five years ago, before Yamada Mitsukatsu retired, he asked his friend, Sawada Yaemon, to keep creating the DIAMOND CUT technique in their factory. “The DIAMOND CUT is a vessel of our memories and friendship.” Said Sawada Yaemon.
The DIAMOND CUT process begins after the frame has been cut from the material, followed by full-frame polishing in a special machine. Inside the machine, the frames are polished with fine abrasive media made from plastic and bamboo for 40 to 60 hours. This process is essential for allowing the material to reveal its natural luster.
