Hey guys, since some days I'm back in possession of a SEIKO Sumo. The 6R15 has a power reserve of 50 hours. My first Sumo has a power reserve of 52h. That was great. But my new Sumo runs after 61 hours still. How can that be ? What is your experience with this movement ? |

[size=4 Herr Philipp, hard to say because I only wore my Sumos straight 4 days soon after I bought them. And then one day at a time on rotation thus I hardly monitor. Experience though is about 48 hours and sometimes 50. 61 hours is way too long, I never heard about this....but you should be happy. |

I don't know Phil...as I've never monitored my SUMO after a full wind and just letting it chill to see how long the reserve lasts. I guess a power reserve run may be in order with mine...I'll let you know what I find out. I think they sold you the super-duper power reserve LE version...Seiko only built a rumored quantity of 3 of those bad boy super-reserve versions! |

This is absolutely impressive, but almost impossible to believe. Chris, it would be interesting what your Sumo have for a power reserve. |

Herr Philipp, now that you've made me curious about the Sumo PR, I'll pull out my Sumo and check out the PR. I will update you. |
