WhiteWaterOut Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 3-Tand Submariner Sneak Peak !! Check it out….. ETA is July 1st. Attached see pictures of some production parts that next week they will anodize. Pictures are difficult to judge colors and shades. They have chosen gun smoke as the primary color, and with the red. Thoughts anyone? Colors good? Darker or Lighter? ***Forgot to mention...the pictures you see is not a clean picture. This picture does not do the parts here justice. It is a GREAT color the way it came out. The photo was taken with a phone camera and colors are definitely off. The color combo is a gun smoke but the red will be the 3-TAND that stands off well on their fly reels.*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I don't find many reels ugly...but if my 65 inch monitor shows those colors accurately....... "Panacheless is no way to go through life" Tims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smellfish Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I think they would be better off if all of the parts were gunsmoke. Another thing to consider ... Reel seats and guides don't really come in that color so some may not like it. Nice machined parts though. Don't stop ... Retrieving ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striper46 Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Not sure if this is a joke cause I've never seem any parts like that for a reel but the red has got to go, gun smoke is sweet but silver is the best cause it doesn't show wear n tear,Was gonna wait to buy a vs or zb till this came out but I think Not gonna wait.

Espresso Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hard to believe all those parts make a reel. Hope the grey parts are a little darker than pictured and the red more vibrant. Red looks a bit washed out in the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyRips Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I cant wait to see the final product. I may have to get a custom rod built to go with those colors though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiderunr Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Gunsmoke fine by me, but the red trim has got to go. Jim C.LIBBA - MSA - ASC' You can tune a piano, but you can't Tuna fish" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
levari Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Next time I bring my wife to go shopping for a reel. We can match it with her shoes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BT Specialist Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I cant wait to see the final product. +1. Like mention above, a solid gun smoke color would be nice. Also can't wait to see the price point and if they will offer the reel in different sizes such as Van Staal and Zeebaas have available now (vs150, vs250, zb22 & zb27).

justinfisch01 Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Gunsmoke fine by me, but the red trim has got to go. Agree....in my opinion when you start adding a bunch of accent colors it begins to have that cheap low quality look.....but I guess its not about what it looks like as much as its performance....although I would prefer more subtle accents....Just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
