You have scored an awesome looking Sumo Stew!  hand6.gifhand6.gif  Like I told Bigrustypig; I really dig the over-sized hands and hour markers plus the lume is stunning.  Like yourself I wish that Seiko used a Sapphire crystal instead of the Hardlex mineral crystal.  My Seiko Scuba Diver (7S26-0028) has the Hardlex crystal and in less than 3 months I had two scratches on the crystal, one of which is about 5/16 of an inch long and is somewhat distracting. :(  The use of the mineral crystal by Seiko has kept me from purchasing another one.  Yours on the other hand has a sapphire crystal and should last for many, many years with no scratches.  yahoo.gif 

Your Sumo has just enough modifications to make it much better but it still looks like the original. woohoo.gif  The pictures you posted are stunning and show all of the watch details to perfection. ThumbsUp02.gif  Enjoy wearing your new custom Seiko Sumo in the Colorado sunshine, cheers.
