Default Cheeky fly reels

New cheeky reels are out, does anyone own any of their reels? I am seriously considering buying the stealth 325. http://www.cheekyflyfishing.com/reels/stealth-325 They are just so unique and eye catching!

They look to much like a car hub cap for my tastes. Too flashy and heavy.
