Bought these recently. What I thought was interesting is that although they have the Gillette 7 o'clock logo and have a Gillette date code (j4) and Gillette arrows, there is no mention of Gillette.

Well, interested me anyway!

Even mentions the trademark and the patent.


Hope you can see the pics; can't see a privacy settings option on my uploading app.

These don't shave brilliantly by the way. No dragging or soreness but not very close
 
Well Gillette did buy out the 7 o'clock company... I guess it was in their interests to run them as separate brands (as you'll also find 7 o'clock razors that are clearly Gillettes carrying the brand) - maybe to catch out the unwary that didn't want to be caught shaving with the razor equivalent of the iPhone?
 
Shame I can't see the photos... no chance of them being knock offs is there?

On a related subject, does anyone know if 7am blades are a knock off of 7 o'clocks, or are they a separate company?
 
Hey......that isn't such a bad idea. Get a razor blade factory set up in Greece and use melted down Drachmas to make the blades.....voila......Greek national debt sorted.
