Sumo or MM300?

Sumo or MM300?
Finally I come to the point of deciding if I should buy a Sumo now or buy MM300. Those who have Sumo, would they eventually buy MM300? A situation I wouldn't want to get into. If I had known I would upgrade to MM300, I would have skipped the Sumo. The dilemma is I may be just happy with the Sumo, and save a load of money of not getting the MM300.

The sumo wears pretty big. Can you handle it?

This means too big for a normal wrist?

Re: Sumo or MM300?
Sumo looks big, but wear ok for my 6.5" wrist. MM300 looks small but looks thicker on the wrist. I don't think we can help you on choice. It's quite personal if u ask me. I bought the MM first, then backside itchy bought the sumo later.

Sumo is great but can you resist the Marinemaster wordings on the MM300?

It just means you need to buy both. Just a matter of which one to whack first nia. :lol: :lol: :lol: If you wanted an honest opinion, should have stayed away from the forums like this one.

Re: Sumo or MM300?
Another idea.

Buy blumo instead then mm300.

Keep both!

Re: Sumo or MM300?
Seems like the chances of me staying with Sumo without the urge to upgrade is very unlikely. Too poisonous here..

I am saving for my mm300. Changed my blumo to pepsi lately. Why not consider shogun?

Re: Sumo or MM300?
Actually the MM300 wears small on the wrist IMO. The measurement looks big on paper but when you wear it on the wrist, the dial doesn't look as big.

Suggest u try out both for a feel if u have yet to.



Measurements on paper can differ greatly in real life.

Re: Sumo or MM300?
I have both the Sumo and the MM300. I treat the Sumo as a daily beat while using the MM300 as a casual ' dress ' watch.

At the end of the day it is really up to you.



Cheers,

Re: Sumo or MM300?
price range quite a huge difference. there is brand new sumo for about $650 selling on another sg watch forum, but mm300 is a whole different ball game already.

Re: Sumo or MM300?
alternative view:



what works for the sumo is that it is in a very sweet price/quality range. especially the blumo - one of a kind.



interestingly for the price point for the MM300 - i find that you actually have MORE choice and I would not just consider the typical brands like Sinn, Oris and (stretching it a used) Tudor or Breitling; AND also the microbrands e.g Crepas (especially the Creman 3000m), Helson, and Aquadive.
KKFA
Re: Sumo or MM300?
But at this price point, I think you will be hard pressed to find the same quality with in house movement..I am excluding second hand watches of course.

MM300...under stated design...below the radar brand..hold value better than most Swiss watches in similar price point.

More like try to get from Seiko dealers online. Especially from Japan. :lol:



AD pricing for higher end Seikos from ADs in SG is insane...



Do note that servicing in the end must also send to Japan, so just bite it lah. :lol:

Re: Sumo or MM300?
I will be nice and give anyone who kena poisoned by MM300 pics some resistance :)



The MM300 is indeed very photogenic. However it is also very non-typical dive watch due to it's height and how the dial is recessed within the bezel. You might not like this aspect of this design so I suggest to the OP and anyone else who kena poisoned to go molest the watch in person at the Seiko boutique at JEM. They had one over there when I visited two weeks ago... :D



As for the Sumo, I saw it once. The MM300 is actually quite small compared to it. :D
ivan
Re: Sumo or MM300?
I owned both sumo and mm300.

So i bought sumo becos I m a big watch person and also feel mm300 looks small and feel small compare to sumo.



This mm300 just keep coming back and so.... Read more, compare more, there r tons of reviews and articles. ... so i advice pple go read them.



Always telling myself buy sumo can already. Buy sumo can already. They r almost the same. They r almost the same.



I leave the decision to pple deciding between this 2 bah. And now, I dont have any sumo, only few rusty mm300 in my drawer.
