Christmas green incoming

I've been checking these out since they were released earlier this year. My dear wife gave me this one today - a SZSC004, my first sumo. I put it on a black crafter blue strap and really like it... It's my biggest piece, but it's going to work out - looking forward to getting aquainted with this one!

Very nice! I have a Crafter Blue strap in black on an SKX and it is very comfy!

Thanks! The watch is very easy on the eyes. Crafter Blue put a big effort into designing a strap for the sumo. It's a near perfect integration. I regularly swap straps and bracelets on my SKX007, probably won't be swapping much on this one.

SK, How well is the fit of the crafter blue on your SKX? Do you have a large or small (013) SKX?

Thanks SK. That looks perfect as well. I'm impressed with the quality and value of Crafter Blue. Hopefully it'll hold up for awhile.

Take care and I hope you all are having a nice holiday.

The gorgeous jade sumo !
I’m feeling that these big divers are far more comfortable with a strap; the bracelet looks great but makes for a really heavy watch.
I’m looking forward to getting a tool that changes bracelets and straps .
