hi i have also been looking around for a diawa and was considering a black gold. i love the looks of them. but now i am leaning towards the new reel that is coming out called SEAGATE. i believe this is replacing the SEALINE, i am not too sure though.
the seagate is lighter due to the composite material that is used instead of the aluminum body but very durable similar as the sealines. i also like that the cost are reasonably low. i am waiting till they come out sometime this month to get them. i believe they have the 35 model as well.
good luck on your search.
