My first birth year and quarter, just happens to be a Lady Gillette ... Just recently missed out on one offered by a member (another site), but for <$2 more I'll be getting the year and quarter I desired.
That's a real beauty! I've heard that the head of that razor is the same as the super speed. If so, you'll get great shaves from it.
I already have ~5 Super Speeds (Flares, Ranger Tech, and etc), so you can tell that I really enjoy them. That all said I'm looking forward to it coming in.
Though I never loved my Techs I've always wanted to try the Star DE as most say they are a little more aggressive and I prefer the handle. I'll also see how the handle suits my gold 1924. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
It's still in transit, can't really tell from seller photos , appears NOS. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Looking good! Let me know how it shaves. I've seen a few around but was on the fence about getting one.
I know the top cap to be Zamak, plate brass, I presume handle is brass but can't verify. I read handle weight is 39.3g (so it's about +10g over prewar Tech). British PAL/Personna versions were often aluminium. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Here's mine, seemed like it was all gold when i got it. But as I've cleaned it up a few times, the cap gets lighter each time.
