I've converted to the "keep them original" school. Sold my EPBD rescaled by Max, kept the #14 & #13 DTs original. I now enjoy the cheapie scales.

I've pretty much reached the same conclusion myself. The original scales has grown on me, and the feeling of having mine original has become important somehow.

I got my first Filarmonica recently. A NOS 14 Doble Temple with light green scales. What a shave. It certainly won't be my last Filarmonica.

Thanked: 1694 A rare thing of beauty
Here is another one that just arrived yesterday.
I have seen one in this thread before, but this one, I believe, is somewhat larger.
It is a C-mon - Filarmonica, made for Peter J. Michels INC.
in Brooklyn New York.
The blade is 1" wide, hollow. It seems to be pretty much the same blade as a EPBD, with a wider spine than the DT's and Medallon Taurinos.
It is in great shape and will be put to the test this very evening.
I'm really exited about this razor

When Glen received my Fili for honing, he asked me to make sure I posted pictures, because he said it was different than others he'd seen. He described it as a "transitional" DT because he said it is not as "wedgy" as the newer model NOS blades recently sold by ClassicShaving... So, here it is (although I apologize for the poor quality):
