Sumo owners... need your advice...
Hi folks,



How many turns is required on your Sumo to secure the crown?



Just gotten a piece of new Sumo over the weekends and realised that it takes ony about 1 1/2 turns to lock the crown which is a bit different from the other watches I own including Seiko.



My Sumo serial no is 1NXXX hence I presume its manufactured in 2011 Nov. Did some googling online and what I gotten is mixed feedbacks hence would like to seek advice from local community.



Thanks.
Re: Sumo owners... need your advice...
Anyone can advise me whether is there any issue with my Sumo please?
Re: Sumo owners... need your advice...
Took more than 3 turns for mine to secure.
Re: Sumo owners... need your advice...

Thanks to all who posted their sumo's turn.



Drove like an F1 driver to rush down to shop during lunch time to change my Sumo.... Tested a few sumo namely from the Aug 2011 and Mar 2012; all took about 3 turns to secure the crown... Hence I was given an 1:1 exchange on the spot and I took the Mar 2012 piece :mrgreen:

3 LIKES for all your 3 watches.

You got the same taste as me, i like plain ss watches with black dials.

Like to introduce you to my current latest, you may just fall in love with it.

Also picked up a pre-loved orange one with some minor wear from a bro here for $400.

Yup, I got the domed crystal form my orange sumo from Harold (yobokies). Then got Mr Goh at K2 to fix it.



Shipping too almost a week but Mr Goh did that fix, along with a new bezel insert and changed the caseback, in under 10min. Charged very little too.

Thanks Seiko Siao! =)
