I ordered a LeCoultre off E-Bay a few weeks back for what I thought was a pretty good price.

It arrived today. I was pleasantly surprised to find the second blade in a sleeve in the box... seller had not advertised the second blade as being part of the set.

The installed (#1) blade rocked a little with the screw in place. The screw was bound, so I shot it with some penetrating fluid and it came out no problem.

It's a bit dirty... there's some gunk in the jimps and at the pivot point, and the top of the #1 blade. I'm sure there's more in the frame itself.

#1 blade looks good overall. #2 has a small chip at the toe, and microchips all along the edge. The wood scales (ebony?) are in good shape. Pins are tight. The tool is in good shape as well.

Overall a good find I think, and if I can get the blade in with no wobble, I'll have at least one that's a good shaver I think.
