Well I thought all Deluxe had a disc into which a pin on the sprocket fitted either a disc with two holes or disc with a stopper so almost a full turn before the drag kicks in.
Yours looks more like the inside of a RAS does the drag work? Was this a mod made when changing to 2 screw caps and the reel name not changed?

I thought that my reel was a Royal Avon Supreme from a description from an Australian member of this forum, but the description of the Seajecta also fits! Without the “id” disc on my reel and new to the make, I just don’t know.

The drag works perfectly as does the reel spinning.

The handles and spool width say Seajecta to me
RAS much narrower but lots of the parts are interchangeable I know as I’ve brought reels back to life using a donor.
You never know what they did on a Friday after a lunch visit to the Kings Arms!!!

The lack of any line guard screw holes puts the “Seajecta” as favourite…
