Shimano Calcutta 200 vs Shimano Chronarch 200

So I've narrowed my new reel options down to these two. Tell me which one I need to get. I'm more of a round reel fella, which is why I keep going to the Calcutta, but the chronarch is a fine reel too. Decisions decisions...

you will be happy with either one now, but 10+ yrs from now you will still be happy with the calcutta, i know i am happy with the ones i have. and in one reel's instance, 20-yrs-happy.
provided that it doesn't get tossed over board, etc...

Jesus Christ man. This is like the never-ending story or Aesop's fables. Just go buy one already. If you can't make up your mind, sell your window unit from the van and get both.

here is the deal on those two. one is your hand of normal or large size? if it is the round reel will not be a problem to palm. if your hands are small you might want to go with the low profile.
secondly the calcutta is made from machined aluminum. the chronach has graphite side plates. I prefer the the all aluminum for long term(10 years) durability. I have 9 or 10 of the calcuttas I take them to get serviced once a year and they come out like new.

I'm a round reel guy too, but I have enough round reels. I went with the chronarch.
You should do the same.

Does nursetyger like the chronarch? If so that's the one I'm getting. 

Posted on 4/15/13 at 2:48 pm to JAB528
Nursetyger doesn't know I've bought it yet.

It's easier to get forgiveness than permission.

FWIW, I don't have a master bath in my house. I'll probably end up doing it at my parents house later tonight
