    Great choice. It will look even more cool on a strap, and you can change colors to give the ticker a whole new look. Nylon straps are super comfortable as well.

    I work building maintenance and I'm usually in less than ideal lighting conditions, so orange works for me.

    closed comb baseplate and razor stand for the ‘above the tie’ S1 slant. I have the open comb razor and just shaved with it today with 1 weeks worth of growth. what a great shave all around, still my favorite razor! I want the closed comb head to use for when i shave more frequently.

    I forgot I still had of the earlier run of King C Gillette blades that the original package never said manufacturer origin from 2020 with the glue on the blade to hold the wrapper and I used one of those early run King C Gillette blades then 8--9, now 7--8 blades left once I use up that early not sure the origin King C Gillette instead of what I thought was a modern King C Gillette made in China blade that came out almost a year later in late January 2021 to my local Walgreens.

    Currently waiting for if I win an e-Bay auction for an F-2 Gillette Super Speed no color flair for part of my dad's birthday gift on October 16th. If I win I will probably get a good deal on a shaver as my max bid was $10 with $4.25 shipping. My dad is turning 65 this year, also plan on buying 50 Personna German red blades as I know he would use Personna with 3 of the 5 blade dispenser packs from the made USA Persona version that are basically the same as modern Personna made in USA 100 pack.

    Lost the bid for the shaver but a different Super Speed standard also F2 was $19.59 USA with case and free shipping so I got that due to how many people were watching the item. I will buy the other 2 sets of items today after work since the price was reduced by the sellers and the offer was for 3 days as of yesterday.

    Out of all the reviews of this model, that was the only real downside that the lumen is only on the hands and did not have long staying power. On the upside, the accuracy is within 20 seconds per month and the battery life is average of three years.

    I bought the shaving blades for my dad's birthday knowing I can buy 65 individual blades for him.

    I also am waiting for a case for my that came with this crappy plastic butterfly Safe-T-Shaver that I plan on tossing the shaver on, using the case for my Micro Touch One as it does not really fit except for one exact way in my Gillette Adjustable slim handle case, so yeah I will be tossing the cheap shaver from the case. This was about the only option for the storage of a shaver where I am not tossing a useable shaver like a short handle Weishi/Clone or a model that could be fixed into a useable shaver even if kind of crappy like an aluminum alloy version of the same shaver with same case, this shaver is not useable from what I remember on old Amazon reviews when the shaver was sold on Amazon the model often broke right away in use but the case was usable for people who had bought models they were going to fly with like a Weishi as on Amazon or most sellers on AliExpress the Weishi model does not come with a case.

    I got the $99 deal for the shaver only with free shipping for my first buying of the model of shaver from said seller or else without the back-to-school sale the shaver getting for the case would not be worth it. I am also ditching the dull steel blade it comes with basically only keeping the case as I bought the version without the unknown stainless-steel blades not wanting blades that are probably crappy rejects from a company like Fly Dear a brand that seems to be the Persona of China or worse, Ming Shi stainless-steel blades that are a brand making blades often sold with shavers mostly.
