Stainless .95 oc would be my choice
So what iteration of the Timeless did you end up going with or did you even buy a Timeless at all?Thank you all for the helpful information so far. I'm leaning towards going with the dual comb .68 in Polished Titanium right now.

Since you are looking for less bulky head you should definitely consider Razorock GC68A very kind friend of mine let me borrow his Titanium .68 for 1 week to try out so I was able to get 3 test shaves in. What a beautiful razor and it's built like a tank!
Unfortunately, I also found the head to be too bulky for me after coming from the Feather AS-D2. The Feather is fairly nimble and it is easy for me to tackle the mustache area. Despite my wanting to love the Timeless, I just couldn't get over the relative bulk. Given how much everyone else seems to love this razor, it may simply be due to my getting used to the Feather for years before trying the Timeless, but I think I'm going to pass on purchasing one.
One razor I have thought about trying is the Tatara Masaune, it seems like it could be a better fit for me.
Thanks again for everyone's help in my search!
That's too bad that it didn't work out for you but I'm sure you'll find the one for you. There is a Tatara pass around either in this forum or another I frequent which would give you a chance to test drive one first also. I've heard very good things about the Tatara...A very kind friend of mine let me borrow his Titanium .68 for 1 week to try out so I was able to get 3 test shaves in.

You do and an extra Ti cap so that you can have 2 complete set-ups.Though happy with Ti68 scalloped, ordered Ti95 OC baseplate to ring in the new year.
Titanium is a great thing to have in you life, and since I have two Ti handles ... I needed it - right?
