    Personally, if I was after the similar par, I’d pop into an indy optician and ask them. Prolly one of those Scandinavian local makers/designers..

    Perhaps you could try and contact the man himself to find out. A few years ago I was watching a George Clarke programme( cant remember which one now) and was wondering what watch he was wearing. Long story short as I couldn`t find it on google or anywhere I sent an email to his company. Much to my surprise his PA got back to me and told me what make and model watch it was. So perhaps go down that route.

    Skaga are the only Scandinavian frame maker I can think of, other than Lindberg but that's not their style.
    Period Carrera frames are the most similar in design.

    Have you tried Balenciaga vintage aviators or gold tone aviators?

    Just done a search on Etsy for vintage frames and found a couple of frames that are similar.

    As suggested above, the Tom Ford and the Balenciaga styles are also close styles.
