I purchased this reel a few years ago at a fishing tackle shop in China and used it there. I've used it about 5 times, and I was careful not to put it on the ground, using it only on a boat, so there are no noticeable scratches or stains. The reeling feel has the typical Daiwa gear feel. I've also added a bearing to the line roller, and I'll include the original bushing. The purchase price was around 25,000 yen, including the rod. It's a model not sold in Japan, so take this opportunity to get it. The spool for the Lexa LT3000D-CXH, which I am also selling, is compatible. If you purchase both, please comment, and I will sell them together at a discount. Crest Legalis Revros Fream's Lexa Caldia
