a friend notified me today, but in the past, I have used a website tracker (browser add on) and shared that tool in this thread (I think).

by using it, you are basically automating page refresh. you still have to add to cart, buy, pay etc.

I am a daily shaver, 3 passes always. Whenever I have 2 or more days growth, I use a straight razor. Other razors I like - CG lvl2, BlackBird, GameChanger 84 (and 34C, obviously). What do you guys think, 1.05 or 1.15?

I think you should email him with your order no in the subject line and switch to 1.15
If you like CG L2, Blackbird etc...this is the ticket. No question. I learned this from Loot
and got the 1.15 it's a tremendous piece of kit.

I'm in the same position - ordered a WR2 DC 1.05 - I like the CG L2, blackbird (which is a bit aggressive), Timeless Bronze 38 - and also liking my WR1 .74 .... would you suggest changing to a DC or SB 1.15?
Thanks,
Ian

Easy answer is that it depends, but if it helps I got the 1.05 and it works perfectly as a daily 3 pass shaver...on this drop I went for a DC 1.25 OC 1.15 SB with the intention of it being my Monday morning shaver (I often don't shave weekends). From my perspective you should be fine...to provide context other razors that I use or have used as daily shavers are; Game changer .84, Rex on level 3 or 4 and Karve DPlate while the Blackbird and r41 and Rex on level 6 are or have been 3day growth shavers.

I have a couple of very mild razors for when my face needs a break as well.

In my experience the 1.15 will be good....I haven't tried the OC side of WR2 so cant say for sure but remember reading some reviews that
that said that in WR2, the SB side is smoother than OC.....1.15SB, a no brainer from my point of view and a great place to start as you'll always find use for it.

so helpful - thanks - I should add that I shave most days - perhaps not weekend, so would want a daily shaver (at least on one side!) - I can see the WR1 .74 being that .... the blackbird, not so much :-)
so maybe now leaning to changing from DC 1.05 to SB 1.15...
