Any local "modders" for Sumo?
Hi all WIS



I just saw this Sumo mod on the internet.





The Sumo is modded with MM300 dial, hands and a new bezel insert too.



Is there any way to get this done locally whereby the service provider has all the mod parts w/o us ordering parts from overseas.



I don't have the Sumo yet but if I can get the mod done locally,it may just accelerate my Sumo acquisition :D

As a walk-in customer, I doubt you need a warranty, they'll just charge accordingly right?

You can get the sapphire crystal from yobokies but the dial is damn hard to find. I'm trying to find one right now but it seems impossible. Even the MM300 clasp is hard to find unless you order from Japan.

Re: Any local "modders" for Sumo?
wow, nice mod. never knew a sumo can be mod into a MM too.

have you tried calling thong sai to ask if they have the dial? you need to quote the model number first i think.

Re: Any local "modders" for Sumo?
does anybody know about how much k2 charges for just installing the dial?

Re: Any local "modders" for Sumo?
just called thong sia. nb they said that they can order that for me but I have to give up my original dial and do a 1 to 1 exchange and they will keep my old dial. Seiko now is acting like Rolex. zzzz. This means this mod is a no go unless you are able to get a marine master dial to exchange with them.

IMHO,if u're willing to spend,get a recon or mod dial then bring.to ts say u got this watch as such and i think they LL also have to sell u and u get to keep ur sumo dial too.

Here is the MM dial and hands on a 6309. One of my favourite mods actually. That's why I am delaying swappming the dial to a sumo :lol: .
