Farlex Platewind Fly Reel 1-1 DD 3 3/4"

A nice Farlex Platewind direct drive fly reel, 3 3/4" diameter and set up for RHW (though the bias is fairly neutral). Raised pillar design. Serial #080. There is one tiny mounting mark on the foot but I can find no sign that the reel has been fished. Silver anodized throughout. The reel weighs 10 ounces on my scale. Gear and pawl drag system with a nice loud click. Ebonite handle that's slightly flared at the end. The winding plate sports a brass medallion over the spindle that notes the size, serial number, and gear ratio. "Farlex" is etched into the winding plate. There is also a tensioner in the frame edge near the foot to adjust the drag. No bag. A nice match for spey rods in the 11' to 14' class.
