    Was looking for the Panasonic RF 60 for some time and finally able to buy one. Build in 1969 and maybe not comfortable to wear but very innovative. And what a great design. In the background of the picture my GF777. They do make a great pair. gf77_rf60.jpg

    Great design indeed, but that thing must weigh a ton. Maybe you should get one of those sixties Futuro Lounge Chairs to go with them. Might set you back a grand or two though...

    Nah. What you need is the very original Panasonic Egg from 1972

    @Magnotron: is this an ad or your own picture? Her outfit and makeup does not look like 1969 to me.

    I did an internet search, she is actrice Natalie Portman and it was part of a photo shoot. Here is a picture from the RF 60 box with some '1969 users' :
