Faasdant has some nice shots of the [possibly] Dieter Rams designed Gillette (Braun’s parent company) Supermax Pro 1300 hair dryer. Very 80’s, in the best possible way. I remember my mom having a similar model, but cream with black type. Now they all look like a prop from a bad sci-fi movie.

the text layout and the use of those thin lines is pretty perfect, would also love it in burgundy/light grey

Indeed Dieter Rams designed it for Braun, as Braun belongs to Gillette Corp., many Braun hair dryers were available in US under that brand.
Take a look on the Braun model here on flickr.
