Hi there,

 

I want to show you some of the most, elegant, stylish, hi-class and rare walkmans: the brushed metal walkmans.

They are made completely from metal with brushed finish. After thorough search in my collection, I managed to find only three models: the SHARP JC-K70, the AIWA PX1000 and the SONY WM-EX20.

 

 Brushed Metal Walkman Series 02

 

Both three are unique, as they share:

 

- latest technology: full logic control, autoreverse, remote control, etc...

- slim and compact desing

- full brushed metal body

 

Probably the rarest of all is the Sharp JC-K70-G:

 

Brushed Metal Walkman Series 05

 

This extremely beautiful player is the only one to have a 100% metal front door (no window, no LCD, no buttons, etc..).

 

The AIWA PX1000 is a well-known top-model. Every serious collector wants one:

 

Brushed Metal Walkman Series 06

 

It's titanium body is truly unique, and the big screen with spectrum analyzer and excellent build quality is very appreciated. Mine is serviced and working.

 

the last one is the SONY WM-EX20, a super-slim walkman with a very rare feature: surround sound:

 

Brushed Metal Walkman Series 07

 

It's very compact and very very beautiful too. Mine is serviced and working, although if I don't use it an a while, they tends to start to fail.

 

Hope you enjoy them!
