I have a goatee so I don't do the "hard parts" but the blade is touching my face for less that 30 seconds a shave.

I just did a test and I will amend my previous post. A two pass shave took me 45 seconds to actually shave.

This afternoon I found a 1965 Gillette Slim that I had forgot about and did a test run. Set it at 7 and it took me 51 seconds for 2 passes.

WTG Under a minute for sure.
