Carrera 1062 vs. Similar Navigator Sunglasses
If you're considering the Carrera 1062, you're likely weighing it against other navigator and aviator styles in the Carrera lineup. Here's how it compares to three similar models in our catalog.
Carrera 1062 vs. Carrera 1071
The Carrera 1071 is the closest sibling to the 1062. Both feature the double-bridge navigator design with the iconic 'C' logo and metal construction with acetate temple tips. The key difference is size: the 1071 has a 61mm lens width compared to the 1062's 62mm. That single millimeter translates to slightly less coverage and a narrower field of vision. The 1071 also includes flexible hinges, which add durability and comfort. If you have a smaller face or prefer a more compact navigator, the 1071 is worth considering—and it's priced slightly lower at $97.79–$119.54. But if you want maximum coverage and the bold presence of larger lenses, the 1062 delivers.
Carrera 1062 vs. Carrera 1069
The Carrera 1069 takes a different design direction. Instead of the classic navigator shape, the 1069 features a geometric, hexagonal front with lateral spoiler details. It's a more contemporary, fashion-forward look compared to the 1062's timeless pilot styling. The 1069 has a 58mm lens width—noticeably smaller than the 1062—so it suits smaller to medium faces better. Both are prescription-ready and available with polarized lenses, and they're priced similarly ($102.31–$126.62 for the 1069). Choose the 1069 if you want a modern, angular aesthetic; stick with the 1062 if you prefer the heritage navigator shape.
Carrera 1062 vs. Carrera 1001
The Carrera 1001 is a budget-friendly navigator option priced at $55.18–$87.77—nearly half the cost of the 1062. It offers Carrera's signature navigator styling but without the premium details. The 1001 lacks the distinctive 'C' logo plaque that makes the 1062 a collector's item, and it uses simpler construction. If you're looking for an entry-level Carrera navigator and price is your main concern, the 1001 is a solid choice. But if you want the full Carrera experience—the iconic branding, the two-tone metal-and-acetate construction, and the design details that set these apart—the 1062 is worth the investment.
Why Choose the Carrera 1062?
The Carrera 1062 hits the sweet spot between classic navigator styling and distinctive Carrera branding. The 62mm lenses provide excellent coverage, the double bridge with 'C' logo plaque is instantly recognizable, and the stainless steel construction balances durability with comfort. It's a frame that works equally well for daily wear or special occasions, and it's prescription-ready if you need vision correction. For customers who want a navigator that stands out from generic aviators, the 1062 delivers.
