Armenid with slight Borreby in cheek-jaw. Or could be Dinarid too. Maybe a little Orientalid giving chiseled look around mouth area.

The second pair of glasses looks way better on him, accentuates the nice features in cheekbone/jaw/mouth and give his eyes a softer look (round glasses don't look good on him).

Zach Braff might have similar bone structure in lower face, but he'd have to lose the double chin for it to show. :-/
