What are you waiting on to arrive...?

One of these went for 4 times that amount recently.

 

I saw that one but that one was in slightly (sarcasm) better condition
It will be interesting to see how it cleans up....

 

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect the only authorized service center in the U.S. to square the second hand with the indicators, which they did not do, but that's a minor quibble. They also didn't offer to buff the crystal. but then I didn't ask. For a rare 1988 model that actually fits my wrist and is comfortable, and has a traditional no-nonsense style, I'm content.

On another upside, I cannot BELIEVE the quality of the pics on this new phone. Now my SOTD pics shouldn't look like they're shot at dusk through vaseline.

 

My ikon tech came today. Any suggestions on what blade to try and how it shaves?

 

That's my kind of watch, simple! Being your dads watch is very nice. You don't need know what the weather is, look outside. Is that a peace symbol? What make of new phone did you get? Crystal clear picture.

 

The iKon Tech is VERY aggressive! VERY! I would suggest you go nice and slow, I used a Lab Blue but any blade that you've had good shaves with is a good start. VERY aggressive.

 

LG G4. My old Motorola Droid Razr HD is about dead (planned obsolescence, I bet). The camera on that thing was awful. This G4 is really nice all around. I can't believe the closeups it took of the watch and I wasn't even trying.

 

Trying to be patient waiting on a new M&F Brush from Lee Sabini

Expecting a Zulu Grey and a Griffin Hill Natural African finishing stone to be shipped this week.

 

I just shaved with the ikon tech. This must be the razor I need cause i finally got the shave ive been looking for. It took 6 razors but I got one that can shave me. Thank god.

 

Tomorrow, after work, I will be able to open up 3 packages. One is from Maggard, one from Stirling, and the final from Knockout. They will contain Mitchell's Wool Fat, Barrister & Mann shave soap, 2 containers of Stirling shave soap, Mickey Lee Drunken Goat, and JL Davis Bee Cool. Never heard of the last, but it was the deal of the week, so I figured I'd try it. Plussssss....... 10 Personna Lab Blues that I'm itching to try. I have NO idea what soap I'm gonna be lathering on Friday.

Almost forgot the Whipped Dog 24MM synthetic that should be here soon. I can't wait.......

 

I am still waiting on my three knots from China. The window of delivery was August 28 through September 12. I am still hoping for an early delivery: i.e. before Saturday. I will still have to get an additional 5 knots to catch up on my waiting handles.

 

2 bottles of Myrsol F/Extra from G&C. Funny how I can get 2 of them shipped from Spain for less than one bottle domestically.

 

I have been collaborating with a gentleman on facebook to get a special brush turned for myself.

Custom poured blue and copper acrylic w/ a Nathan Clark 22mm Envy White knot







Should be in by Monday. Very excited to get this thing on my face.


Here is my brush design. I have the CAD drawings if anyone is interested in turning this thing for themselves

 

I'm waiting for an order from the shave den shop and a Gem micromatic. Tracking puts them both in my box Friday. I'm hoping for early.

 

My new Rubberset 400

 

Finally
Congrats!

 

Congrats. Which one did you get?

 

Currently waiting on a Merkur 34C HD and some samples of TOBS creams and Chiseled Face soaps.

 

SWEET! Now that's the deal I'm looking for.

 

very nice!!
