. . . booted it around as to whether I wanted to try an Anvil or an oyster with a MM clasp on my Sumo. A deal over at WUS on a new never sized Anvil made it a no-brainer. For half a c-note I dove on the Anvil.

Very nicely made braclet. Great fit/finish, friction pin sizing along the entire length, both sides . . . signed Seiko clasp . . . . the shortfall is the folded end links. The end links are very thick though, I would guess they are made from metal close to 2mm thick. They fit perfect, as well as the stock solids do.

Even though the Suno is regarded as a dress diver, the stock bracelet just leaves a little to be desired for me. Picky,picky. So, for the money I took a shot at it . . . after all I love a Watchadoo . . .

. . . . the Anvil wears really comfy, the finish is a little off matching the Sumo though. Overall, it gives me a change if I want it . . . . Anvil . . . 803574

Nice job! Thanks for ALL the photos. I'm still thinking that I will stay with the OEM bracelet as it really does dress up the watch and I am wearing it more as a Dress Diver. The Anvil looks to be on par with my Watchadoo (with more links available for adjustment Anvil . . . Icon_cheers ) and much as I like it on my Monster I think you're right - it's too toolish for a dressy look.

I'm more into the TOOL DIVER look so for me, the Anvil ROCKS!

Great pics!

I may have a Sumo on of these days!

Since a lot have black, I may go for ORANGE!

NICE upgrade Randy!

Looks pretty good. I was impressed with the Anvil and yeah I would prefer solid endlinks but the folded ones are pretty good. Good fit to the case which is most important IMO.

That bracelet works RIDICULOUSLY well with the watch Randy ! Anvil . . . Icon_biggrin
Honestly, it seems like it was meant to look this way. The new
bracelet looks so good, that it helps draw your eyes into the
entire design of the watch. It completes a classy, sporty look
perfectly, and evidently comfortably too ! Anvil . . . 803574 Congratulations !
GREAT job !!! GREAT pictures !!!

I think with the Anvil the Sumo is less of a dress diver and more of a tool diver .
One of the big characteristics of the Sumo is that it's a great dress
diver, a watch you can even wear in a suit, so at least in my eyes the
Anvil gets in the way a bit. As a dress diver the stock bracelet makes
the watch look more refined.
