Congrats on an awesome SUMO Mario!!! Agree...the Sumo is a great piece! IMO, it's one of those pieces you hold in your hand and as you study the excellent (and unique) design and finish of the Sumo case...you say to yourself, 'how does Seiko do all this at its given price point?'. Enjoy! |

thanks everyone...and like others have said I am finding myself admiring all the curves and differences in the finish. Just from looking at peoples pictures I never noticed the strip of brushed metal on the sides of the case, cool touch. And so far the 6r15 is spot on to what I set it to yesterday... |

I seriously can't take it off my wrist, looks even better in the sunlight. Been alternating with this and the revolver. BTW those guys above are awesome, who are they? |
