What are people opinions on these two sets of alarms. Are they worth the money? What should I go for? R3s look better in my opinion
Cheers

Delkims all day long, but it's up to personal choice mate. See if your local tackle shop can give you a demo, and see which your prefer

R3s are nice alarms , but it's Nash that's lets them down also. Poor quality checks as I've had some crap issues. Delkims are far better built and overall better alarm.

Have the reoccurring issues with delkim alarms been resolved with the new models or will they be worse, only time will tell. I did test the new models at a show last year and it looked like a visual refresh with control tweaks, your still able to draw line off a reel with no alarm activation as per the old models.
So, you can't say other alarms have quality issues as no alarms are 100% always perfect.

Buy what you like after comparing them side by side.

I sold my r3s to buy the new delkims last year would do it time and time again much better alarms everything from the build quality to the features. I would choose the delkims everytime they are brilliant and had no problems with them at all since I got them

Has anyone ordered the new Delkims from Fishernator? I've ordered other stuff from Europe before and had no issues, but never dealt with these. They're coming out at £465 a set which is a lot cheaper than the UK prices.

It's funny how we complain or worry about how our high street fishing shops are closing, but you are happy to buy from an outlet in Europe to save a couple of quid rather than support a UK shop! Granted I don't always by locally, but that's generally if he doesn't have what I'm after, but I'd spend my online cash in other UK shops.

Using R3's with no problems, when wanted to change the colour on the receiver Nash send me the coloured covers no charge. Happy with them
