What's new

Strange Gillette, can someone help me to identify this one?

To me, it looks like a Tech handle matched with some mysterious gillette head, but have no idea which one. I tried to find it on mr-razor's site, but without success. Thanks in advance for any ideas :)

The handle and head are Gillette, the base plate is not. I do not know what razor it is from.

:oops:

Mr Razor has answered the question.

Thanks a lot gents. Still, this head seems to have wider teeth and there are fewer of them. Moreover, there are no holes in the base plate. Maybe it's just the different design of the razor that mr-razor has shown?

I have one of these OC Tech's, too. I'll have to see if I can dig it up when I get home this evening to see whether the guard plate is like yours or the ones in the thread that Achim linked to. One other difference to not there in general is that it's not just the comb that's different in those other ones. Yours here is based off of the later design with the end facets on the cap and the knockouts in the corners of the guard plate, where the ones in that other thread are still based on the older design without those features. I think that mine is more like yours than the ones in that other thread.

My assumption is that the open comb design just fared better in certain markets and so Gillette stamped out Techs that way to sell there. I've seen other versions of the same razor branded Minora and Nacet, which are two other brands that were brought into the Gillette fold somewhere along the way.
 
Looks to be an earlier design of the Nacet logo a quick trawl through a image search throws up some pics of Nacet blades with the same logo looks like it was changed over the years to what it is now...
