Just out of interest which of the above would you prefer if you just had the choice of only having one of them ?
and why ?

The only reason i ask i have been thinking of selling or trading a 6105 to get a "new" watch.

Get all three, put the Tuna in the middle and enjoy a Tuna sandwich.

The 6105 by a WIDE margin! :-X Don't do it! ??? :'(


Of course, selling it to me would be perfectly acceptable! :-*

Shrouded Vintage Tuna - all the goodness of a 6-series vintage diver with THE classic high torque quartz movement.

John, my friend....I guess you already know my answer to your question, hu? ;D

 

[JoepeteJokla]

6105 - GREAT vintage Seiko
Sumo - THE choice in value for money ... it really is that well finished
Tuna - SO practical, durable and reliable

Get all three. They will compliment each other very well

If there can be only one:

ONE OF EACH! THANK YOU!

IMB, they are all must haves! And if one isn't enough, GET MORE! Muuaah ha ha ha! (Sinister laugh)

6105- for me the vintage watches have the character. Of course if you meant by Tuna any of the shrouded divers, I could go for the 7549-701x or the 6159-701x.

 

[seikomatic]

for daily use...sumo for sure and 6105 is just too good to look at..

 

[thianwong]

what? sell DIRTY HARRY? hahahaa!

 

[sdoocms]

All three, and it doesn't matter which watch gets to me first! ;D

 

[reficul_x]

I agree with Seikomatic.

6105 for keep sake (and staring)
Sumo for daily wearer

Tuna can is fun. But somehow, the crown, screw thread on tube, time setting, etc, just don't feel right. Will be a nice display watch of course. But the 1k plus price tag doesn't allow that.
I used to have 3 of them. Sold all of them for the reasons mentioned above.

 

[TheNeilo1]

John i suppose im like a few on this forum that i have the benefit of owning all 3 watches mentioned.
The Sumo is one of the most big bang watches for the buck.
The Tuna is one of the most sought after Divers.
The 6105 is one of the most highly regarded of the vintage divers.

You need all 3 my friend im afraid.

The decision will only ever be yours my friend.

 

[sharkfinDave]

Love the 6105, and the tuna, well I need one in my collection. Don't do it. But if you gotta, tuna is welcome to join my herd. ;D

If you own a 6105 diver in good condition and with all OEM parts, I would keep it if I were you. I'd surely also enjoy a Tuna, but (unspoiled) 6105s are harder to find while SBBN015 Tunas are still in production (expensive, of course...). I'm not too crazy about the Sumo, compared to the other two.

 

[mrteatime]

would have to be the tuna here im afraid....great dilema to have though

having owned the sumo, and a 6105, i must admit that i was slightly disapointed with both (the 6105 looks a little unbalanced only having the 20mm lugs imvvvho, and the sumo just didnt have the wrist presence that i was expecting)

 

[TheTigerUK]

what? sell DIRTY HARRY? hahahaa!

Thian when the day comes that i only have one watch left it will be Harry !! ;D ;D

If you already have, say...a 6309, which can be your "cool vintage classic auto," you need to take the leap across the canyon and get a quartz Tuna. No need to pay $1k for a new SBBN015. Both the vintage 7549-7010 and it's modern brother SBBN007 will give you the chunky wrist presence that you're looking for.

I can't comment on the Sumo, having never seen one in person, but it looks a little plain jane in comparison to some of my current family of vintage divers, despite its value and features...
