I've been curious and interested in the Seiko Sumo for a while and finally decided to take the pluge recently.  It arrived today and I think it's a winner.  The bracelet leaves something to be desired with its cheap clasp and loose fit at the lugs (too much gaps around the lug piece), but I do find it to be sufficiently hefty and I have no problem with the 20mm width (two common complaints I see regarding the Sumo).  The watch head is first class all the way.  Great surface finishing and unique design throughout.  Nice dial with applied indicies and good looking hands.  And Seikos have some of the best bezel action of all divers I've handled.  I think it's a nice value at the under $500 price range and it should be a keeper.

Onto a few pics:
