The date code X1 could represent 1952 but British Gillettes didn't use date codes then and the top cap has beveled side edges and I don't think they were manufactured like that till the 60s? With that I'm going with 1977.I didn't shave with this but the razor looks mint but who knows if it's ever been used? There are some like blemishes throughout from the plating process. There are 3 light pinholes on top off to the side a bit that may be from handling though? You should be able to pick them up in a couple of pics. Other than that the plating is excellent.
The razor functions fine with the key provided. I don't know anything about the key or who made it since I couldn't find any info on it. It's made of solid brass that's been polished with an insert in it for the lock. It works great lock/unlock, open/close and feel like it goes with the razor. If it's cranked down a bit when closing it will stay in there pretty good.
Thanks for looking and I may have some other razors for sale.
