It's late, at least where I am, so I can appreciate you are tired and I'm grateful for your efforts! There are a lot of "P" words in your first "P"aragraph...I'll have to give that one another read tomorrow. Kind of has a Dr. Seuss sing-songy way about it!
Nice razors! Is it an optical illusion, or is the Gen II head shorter from front to back than the Gen I...looks that way in picture 3, but not in pictures 1 & 2. It's interesting that Gen II has a crease on the top cap that slants away both to the front and the rear. It looks like it would change the shaving angle compared to Gen I, as the crease would push the razor away from your face. Because of this I would think they've got to shave a bit differently. I guess in a way this is comparable to the 1912s and how they have heads that are slightly different, with some being flat and some being curved.
I'll look again tomorrow after I'm up and got coffee in me. Really great photos! That Gen II is a real looker! The combination of the kind of matte grey plating and the brown handle is nice! The styling of the tab with the grooves gives it a modern look.
Again, much appreciated!!! Wish there were a thumbs up emoji option because this is where it would be!
Hey, GAW9576!
It just dawned on me that the top cap on the Gen I looks like the 1912, while the top cap on the Gen II looks like the G-Bar.
I will have to compare the razors to see if they are identical of just similar. You are right though.
