October 2020 Acquisitions

[HereticHermit]

Kicking off this month's acquisitions.
I wanted a simple digital watch reminiscent of late 80s. I didn't knew Casio had brought back 'Classic' range some years ago and I was pleasantly surprised to find something simple without looking too busy and display relevant data at one glance. Light enough that you can sleep wearing it. For £13, it returns excellent value. Only knock against this one is; it has US date display which cannot be changed.

I knew it was going to be big but this is frankly ridiculous! There’s enough plastic in this knot to choke a blue whale

I’ll see if it’s usable tomorrow.

Is this a Boker?

Goedecke & Co. Good guess though, I think the factory got bombed back to the stone age in 1945 and Boker ended up buying the rights to their trademarks.

Looked like a Boker!

Hopefully this is all I'll be buying in October! I'm really impressed with the knot in the PAA brush, very soft and easy to splay which is how I like them.

At under £8 delivered I couldn't let it go. Especially the included travel sleeve.

Not directly shaving related, but will come handy when I will be removing knots from handles or cleaning old glue from brush handles.

How's the backbone of this one?

You can tell I have too much free time.
Normally this brand doesn't even register with sellers here so when I saw these listed at a local perfumer website, it would be crying shame to pass on for £5.80 for a bottle with no international journey time and nail-biting if parcel will make through the customs. So these two will go as back-up for the first.
