I just received my razor today that I won on eBay over the weekend. It certainly doesn't look like any Gillette I know.
So which Gillette is this?

Apollo in Gillette case, nice score!
+1, Doug. Though I wonder if the handle could be a generic Solingen handle? - I am no expert, I hasten to add!

And we have a WINNER!!
I was thinking I was bidding on a cased Apollo in pretty good condition, but totally did not notice the bottom right of the case when it was closed in the last pic on eBay.
Oh well, I guess I have to look for a Gillette that fits that case and a case for the Apollo.
Different than mine, but handle looks familiar though not exactly the same[ as these. Seem to be some variants.

This was not my first Apollo/Ben Hur, but the first time I seen the handle. There is a good chance that it is not an Apollo handle as it fits too well.
Well done, congratulations.

Maybe it's got a warning system to keep the head angle straight and prevent me from crossing over from my jaw line. ;-)It looks like it's from an Audi.
NICE RAZOR!! (Now you really do need a Gillette to fit the case!)

Reason I suggested another brand was that I have a similar one - or more correctly, upon double checking: An almost similar one, mine actually looks a lot like the one pictured by @jmudrick:
I got mine on a no-name German anticor razor. It is a great weighty handle, fits a Tech perfectly!
