My excuse? 15year old #SARB017 is losing a (nearing)minute daily and rotating bezel’s gritty from min 30 to min 45.

Solar+GMT Sumo’s surprisingly light(coming from SARB017 and Garmin Instinct). Doesn’t feel too tall nor overhang on my 7.25in/18.4cm wrist.

On Single pass RSM Field Grey Herringbone Twill strap until I get bracelet link removal tool. Love this strap as I can position all the hardware away from bottom and underside of wrist, makes sysadmin’ng a breeze.

Seems that I got lucky with alignment draw? Seconds hand appears to be mostly hitting all indexes on the rehaut, missed a by bit from min 45 to min 60.

Overall, Chuffed to bits.

    Wanted GMT complication, 'twas between this and MM200 GMT.

    SBPK003 edged the MM200GMT as it didn’t use the high~er beat rate Cal6R64 as used in Sharp Edged Presage GMT.

    Didn’t hurt that I liked the “hooded/shrouded” bezel look of the sumo vs bare and exposed one on MM200GMT.

    15 years back, I don’t think I’d pick up a quartz watch with jerky-seconds-hand-that-reminds-me-of-a-school-wall-clock.
