I have the Timeless 0.38 Bronze. I personally love the bronze. You can polish it to keep the patina away. I keep mine polished because I prefer the polished look myself. It is beautiful very well made razor. Worth every penny in my opinion. I am looking at a SS also. Check their scratch and dent in the razor section, you can save some money. The one I'm interested in saves about $50 over new.

Keep in mind that the bronze is not just the ss version in bronze. The bronze and ss razors have a different design. The ss .68 is my preferred DE razor. I did not get good results from the .38 bronze, as it irritated my skin despite the smaller blade gap. The bronze is, however, a beautiful razor. I like the patina, but it's easy to periodically polish it off if you prefer shiny bronze.

I have been hesitant on the SS. I know they're different and I really have such great performance form the Bronze, I'm afraid I may not love the SS. I'm not opposed to a more aggressive razor, I use both mild and aggressive with good results.

Great choice. That setup was my first Timeless. Let us know how it works out for you.

Ordered Monday and here on Wednesday. Insane. I ordered "scratch and dent" but honestly this looks literally brand new. I'm guessing somebody bought it and returned it almost immediately.
It got here at 8 pm while I was working in the hospital and it's now 10:11pm so I'll use it tomorrow night after my 12 hour shift.
This is beautiful![[Image: f8f912b0961160328db95c3b2ae65961.jpg]](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210325/f8f912b0961160328db95c3b2ae65961.jpg)

That is service if I do say so. Great looking piece! Let us know how it handles. I'm guessing great.

Beautiful razor. Buying from Timeless is a great experience, because their razors are always in stock and they ship quickly.
