Guys looking at this Razor
is it basically a Slim in a fancy gold colour & case
or is it a completely different razor ?
Iv looked at it and looked at it,
iv had my slim out and they both look the same to me

I have one of these - I'm pretty sure it is just a luxury Slim - as you say - it is identical to my regular version in every way apart from the finish. Cheers - I.

I know there’s a smaller silver coloured razor that’s different and also called an Aristocrat which i’m sure it is.
Thanks for clarifying i thought i was losing the plot

Don't tell anyone, but the Slim is a better shaver than a "Fatboy". More ergonomic.

I have one myself Mike - it's the Gillette Aristocrat Slim Adjustable. Beautiful razors even if they're merely a gold plated slim. Here's mine:

Fatboy was first and the Slim followed. The Slim was the improved version.
