The Emblem S-4500T and Emblem S-5000T are definately not the same size reels.
Had both reels. The 4500 are actual smaller size and great for short rods like the Harrison 3pc. Stalker.

I remember when silver was all the rage, then black - not sure where we are now? some of those new posh diawa reels look nice with all the red bits on!

Hi fi and audio visual stuff has had similar colour trends.
For years it was black .

Then it went silver for a decade , then drifted back to black.

Daiwa reels with red on them have been around for over 10 years now.
