Otto Zwarg Model 300 Saguenay Fly Reel 2/0

1328


A very nice Otto Zwarg Saguenay Model 300 salmon fly reel in 2/0 size. RHW. 3 3/8" diameter with a 1 3/8" spool width and weighing approximately 9.5 ounces. Single action. Serial number C445, one of the earliest reels made after the move to St. Petersburg in 1948. Excellent overall condition free of any major defects. The frame is in great shape, as are the foot and pillars, the latter of which has a slight taper into the edge of the foot, though it is neatly done. The black sideplates are excellent as well, the screws show virtually no sign of having been touched, the drag adjuster is smooth, and the red dots are all nice and intact. The drag is smooth and adjusts nicely throughout the range. The original owner, "SG Seccombe" and the date "1948" are professionally engraved into one sideplate, and corresponding initials are to be found on the handsome leather reel case as well, indicating that it is original. A very fine example of this model.

There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.

Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
