Dax Messages 151 Saturday October 13, 2012 #1 Anyone recently bought a Gillette New in the UK? I've got one which is a little rubbed here and there but is great to use. I was wondering if getting a good one will break the bank or not?

OP Dax Messages 151 Saturday October 13, 2012 Thread Starter #3 Re-plating is an option I considered but it also came in a brown bakelite box with two razor cases that doesn't seem right for it, the box looks like a no.77 New box but my razor isn't. It was a fiver from an antiques fair so can't grumble about it.
