Quick Answer The Maybach Sunglasses The Idol I (MG-WEK-M09, 56-17-145) is a rimless, geometric sunglasses frame with gold metal arms, black temples with neon yellow inner tips, and gradient brown lenses. Priced at $2,850.00, it's handmade in Germany as part of Maybach Eyewear's ultra-luxury collection, sold exclusively in-store through authorized dealers like Lexor Miami — it is not available for online purchase.

A Legacy Built on "The Best From the Best"

The Maybach name carries more than a century of history. Wilhelm Maybach founded his automotive company in 1909, building precision-engineered luxury cars for royalty, industrialists, and the era's most elite clientele under a single guiding philosophy: create the very best from the very best. That same standard resurfaced in 2010, when Maybach Eyewear launched its first collection of high-end, handmade spectacles and sunglasses — extending the brand's obsession with exacting craftsmanship into a completely different category.

Today, every Maybach frame is still handmade in Germany using rare, precious materials — think buffalo horn, exotic woods, titanium, and gold or platinum accents — with each piece passing through skilled artisan hands rather than a mass-production line. Maybach Eyewear is sold exclusively through a select network of authorized retailers, which is why frames like The Idol I are typically found in-store rather than through standard e-commerce checkout.

Design: A Rimless, Geometric Statement

The Idol I takes a distinctly architectural approach to sunglasses design. Rather than a traditional rim, the lenses sit in a rimless mount supported by polished gold-tone metal arms, letting the gradient brown lenses take center visual stage. Black temples carry a sharp contrast, finished with a striking neon yellow accent on the inner tips — a bold, contemporary detail against the otherwise classic gold-and-brown palette.

The geometric silhouette gives the frame a modern, angular presence that stands apart from more traditional round or aviator-style luxury sunglasses, making it a genuine statement piece rather than an everyday neutral frame.

Craftsmanship: What "Handmade in Germany" Actually Means

Maybach Eyewear frames are not mass-produced. Each piece moves through traditional frame-building techniques refined over decades, with materials selected for their inherent quality rather than trend appeal. That process is part of why Maybach positions its eyewear alongside brands like Cartier and Jacques Marie Mage in the ultra-luxury eyewear tier — genuine exclusivity backed by decades of engineering heritage, not just a price tag.

Who Is This Frame For?

The Idol I suits collectors and luxury eyewear enthusiasts who want a piece that reads as art as much as it does an accessory — buyers who value exclusivity, hands-on craftsmanship, and a design that won't blend into a crowd. Its bold geometric shape and gold detailing make it a strong pairing with tailored, elevated outfits rather than casual everyday wear.

Buying In-Store: What to Expect

Because Maybach Eyewear restricts sales to authorized retailers, The Idol I is available exclusively in-store at Lexor Miami rather than through online checkout. Visiting in person also means you can try the frame on, see the gold detailing and lens gradient in natural light, and get fitted properly — especially important with a rimless design where fit and proportion matter more than with a heavier full-rim frame.

Authenticity & Warranty

As an authorized Maybach dealer, Lexor Miami guarantees that every Maybach frame sold is 100% authentic and sourced through official channels, backed by the manufacturer's warranty.

Care & Maintenance

  • Store in a protective case when not worn, since the rimless design leaves the lens edges more exposed to impact than a full-rim frame.
  • Clean lenses with a microfiber cloth only, avoiding paper towels or clothing that could scratch the gradient coating.
  • Avoid exposing the gold-tone metal arms to harsh chemicals, chlorine, or saltwater.
  • Have adjustments made by a professional optician, given the precision engineering of the rimless mount and hinges.
