Is the JDM Calcutta Conquest 200 cheaper than the US CTCNQ200A?
It depends on the exchange rate. The official list prices are ¥61,900 for the Japanese 200 (before consumption tax) and $599.99 for the US CTCNQ200A (US price, Shimano North America online store). We do not convert currencies. Dividing one by the other, the Japanese list price is the lower number when one US dollar buys more than ¥103.2.
- Japan: Shimano Japan's "本体価格" (base price; the page marks it 税別, before consumption tax), Shimano Japan page, checked 2026-10-11.
- US: the price on Shimano North America's official online store, fishshop.shimano.com, which does not call it MSRP, Shimano US page, checked 2026-10-11.
The Japanese figure excludes Japan's consumption tax (the page says so); the US page shows its price without mentioning tax. Shipping, import duties and shop prices are not included. Japan list prices are the makers' base prices before consumption tax (Shimano "本体価格", marked 税別; Daiwa "メーカー希望本体価格", marked 税抜). US prices are Shimano North America and Daiwa USA MSRP, or for Shimano baitcasting reels the price on Shimano North America's official online store. Source dates are shown with each record (2026-10-11 or 2026-10-13). We do not convert currencies or add tax. Prices can change; check the current price on the official page. Shop prices and stock are not shown. About prices
Do the numbers match?
We convert the Japanese figures and compare them with the US table. Small gaps within rounding (0.15 oz, 1 lb, 0.6 in) count as a match.
| Item | JDM 200 | USDM CTCNQ200A | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gear ratio | 4.8:1 | 4.8:1 | Matches after unit conversion |
| Weight | 235 g (≈ 8.3 oz) | 8.3 oz | Matches after unit conversion |
| Max drag | 6 kg (≈ 13.2 lb) | Not confirmed | Cannot compare (value not published) |
| Retrieve per crank | 57 cm (≈ 22.4 in) | 22 in | Matches after unit conversion |
Line capacity is not compared value by value: Japan rates PE line in gō (号) × metres, while the US table uses lb test × yards for a named braid, and the two cannot be converted exactly.

Officially listed compatibility applies to the Japanese reel as listed in Japan. We have not found a statement from Shimano that the US version takes the same parts, so we do not say it does.
