I’m just sitting back enjoying hearing various things. I own all of them except the first model but do own a very limited edition of the first stainless adjustable that Murat did in conjunction with Barbaros so I’m good as that one is coated in black “titanium”. Anyway, I always get sucked in with the latest Murat has to offer so just waiting to hear what the differences are. For me, I think I may wait until he offers some iteration of a Sailor that has some titanium in it. Who knows when that will happen as titanium is extremely difficult to get in Turkey or so it seems. Hasan at Barbaros is working on some titanium versions of his TR-2, TR-3 and a new more aggressive version he is calling a TR-4 and he is in Turkey. Hasan is also working on a really cool design of a Gem/Injector razor. That is all for a different forum though. Anyway, I am a Murat/Rocnel fanboy so I can only hope he releases a new different Sailor and I will be all in!

I asked Murat on his Instagram post what the differences are between the MC and regular 2022 editions.

In the meantime, I looked on his website and it says for the Master Collection… “Its design is similar to the standard sailor model. The main difference with the standard model is the manufacturing process. This model is not mass produced. Each product is made in a separate build process. Special for collectors.”

So I’ll wait and see what he replies on Instagram. The website description isn’t super-reassuring - especially since I happen to think that mass produced is always better than hand made. Just look at a Ferrari close up and you can easily see how inferior the build is to a mass produced Mercedes - the Ferrari will have wonky stitching on the leather, messy welds, panel gaps, scruffy wiring, etc.

I paid 570 Euros for the 2021 MC....and now its 630 Euro for the 2022 MC.

60 euros for better mechanics etc sounds ok.

Unless the conversion is now drastically different that when you ordered...you got a special price at 570.  MSRP was $690.

Euro/Dollar was 5-10% higher last year.

Living on the edge
No specials...mine was 570 Euros....which is probably same as $690

However in my currency it turned out way cheaper to pay in euros then USD....some sort of currency exchange voodoo
no doubt

The Barbaros TR-3 already seems pretty aggressive to me. Rather like a Blackbird. Does he really need a more aggressive TR-4?

What do you think about the TR-3, George?

Absolutely LOVE the TR-3 and thought the TR-2 was too mild so the TR-4 which will be a more aggressive SB will be right up my alley!!

Will do my man! Think I told you that the TR-3 was going to be a beast. It’s Hassan’s first OC and he made it more aggressive than his SB offerings. It came out absolutely beautiful too!

Great detail in here about the various offerings. Methinks the next time I dip my toes in the water it will be for titanium. I will be all in for that model, if and when it is available.
