Up for sale is one Gillette 195 ( Fatboy ) Adjustable Safety Razor. Date code is F1 being First Quarter of 1960.
Razor has been Replated and Restored via a 3rd party professional service - details below. This Fatboy is about as close to "new" as you're going to find. Replate completed in "Mirror Nickel". Full functionality and shave ready including 1/4 turn. While the replating process might not remove all imperfections, any marks remaining are very fine and I call these "character marks". I'm happy to send more detailed photos upon request.

Replating Process:
Inspection, Repairs are made, guards are straightened, doors are straightened, mechanics are checked, endcaps soldered, razor is then disassembled.
Start with a 10-minute soak in Pine Sol (kills 99.9% of germs). Then 1 hour of Deep Cleaning / Disinfecting in 160 degree Ultrasonic with special degreaser / soap scum remover.
Those razors allowing for disassembly are disassembled.
Polishing. Worn, pitted locations are sanded and or smoothed out, heavy pitting will be lessened but still be visible. Outer Head Surface and Endcaps are sanded to remove all scratches and pitting then mirror polished smooth. The rest of the razor will have a polished factory finish.
Hand Polish with special jewelers' cloths.
Next, ALL razors receive Ultrasonic Deep Clean / Disinfecting at 160 degrees then 160-degree Electro clean, then Surface Activation, then Mirror Nickel Plating.
Numbers and selector spring painted with Testors enamel paint. The black ring below the selector dial on Fatboys is now USA made automotive pinstriping, which in by experience lasts longer than painting with enamel.
Reassembly, blade gap is checked and set, mechanics are checked.
Final Hand Polish
