I enjoy both of those brands, and those pipes look beautiful. Enjoy!
Just tried them both on my lunch break, good smokers, not expensive, and they sit! 
The pipes look exceptional!! Comoy and GBD are two grand names in British pipe smoking.
Also got this Astley lovat, has some nice grain, smokes great. The white A is worn down, otherwise great condition. I wonder how to date a pipe like this?

That’s why I got it, I heard on podcast the models with 3 part C are especially good smokers
Better grain shot

I love my Comoy and GBD estates. Yours look great, enjoy them.
For the A on the Astley, there are some tricks to getting the white fill. search this forum on restoring or search Reborn Pipes, I’m sure he’s covered it.

Great looking pipes!
You can’t go very wrong with a GBD if it’s got a metal rondel.
