Can you identify the year of this?

[DirtDiver]

I recently acquired this razor (see pictures) on Etsy when I was surfing around one night in an attempt to feed the NOS RAD's

I was wondering if anyone knew what year it is from?
I think it is from 1966, based on this... http://www.mr-razor.com/Rasierer/Tech/1966 (L1) Tech Super Stainless.JPG but the box is a little different...

was hoping someone could either confirm or rebut this. Thanks guys

Use this chart to date Gillette razors http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/US_Gillette_Dating_Information The date code will be under the baseplate.

Check the underside of the base plate to see if there's a date code there (it should be a letter and number, e.g. X3). If you find them, then just go here: http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/US_Gillette_Dating_Information and match up the year. The number is indicative of the quarter that the razor was manufactured.

You, got me right now, but that seems about right. It sure looks Minty Congrats and the Tech.
