Think the best is,

Buy 2 SUMO
Buy 2 MM300
Buy 2 EMPEROR TUNA

settled once and for all! :) :D

Don't have a Sumo. But here's the Shogun (SBDC007) and MM300 together.

If the pics of these three together are any indication, the sumo is even bigger. :D

Although Sumo is bigger, it's still fit nicely even on a 6.5 inch wrist.

I was like that when I got my MM but the urge to buy the Sumo faded as I live with the MM on a daily basis. I turned to other models either more iconic like the Tuna, or using other materials like the Shogun. But thats me.. have a great time with your MM, it is a keeper imho.

You will not regret your choice. Once your MM300 settle in, you should come back and post how accurate it is.

Mine is running +1 s/day if I wear it consistently and is +3s when I put it in the winder. Not sure if I got lucky or if this is normal.

On the other hand, the Shogun is now +10 s/day. :|

Wow +1 s a day is even better then GS spec. Usual from what I know is around 6 s a day. But have also heard of upwards to 10s a day. Congrats on getting an excellent example.

Shogun is has a 6R15 heart so 10s a day is also also well within spec.

Mine runs at 5 to 6s a day for both the MM and Shogun. For my Emperor with the same heart as the MM, it runs at about 3 s a day.

But more to the point is that you should enjoy the pieces. And with any of these 3, you will never go wrong.

Btw, I still am not that into buying the Sumo, unless I go to Japan and get one at a great price. :D

nice pic. i like the more angular design of the sbdc007 - the cuts in the bezel looks sharper, even the lugs on the case looks different from an sbdc001
