I don't know why I waited so long on this one. I liked them when they came out around 2008, and the price keeps going up and the availability has dropped. This is really a nice watch in the hand. The finish is excellent. I like the 20mm lugs and 45mm case because it keeps the focus on the head piece.

Truly a great watch Steve! It`s a lot of watch for the money. I love my seikos, and just got to get me a sumo one of these days. Enjoy it!

The NATO is great because the lugs are far away from the case and the strap slides in easily and fills the gap distange from the lug bar to the case. I just noticed on this picture that the bracelet looked crooked and I checked under my watch and the spring bar wasn't seated properly and was coming out. That's because I put the bracelet back on for the photos after I had it on the NATO. So the bracelet is not crooked, I was just not being careful.

Congrats Steve, and agree with you on all fronts!!! The Seiko Sumo is a killer watch and great value.  I agree on your Nato/Zulu comment given the long lugs...I will have to give that combo a try myself. Enjoy!!!
