I'm wearing a 7548/6309 hybrid right now. It's my go to watch! I wear it all the time and luckily I have a 7548 expert near me for when it decided to take a dump. Love this movement!
Hi Spencer, very enjoyable video and very satisfying to see the final result. Can you recommend someone who can perform a similar service for a Seiko 7548 in or near Ireland? Thanks
Hi Spencer, extremely helpful - bought my 7548-7000 in the early 80s (40 years ago) and now want to get it fully restored to pass on to my son for his 21st birthday. Watch has stopped and needs a full assessment and restoration. I live in Melbourne Australia - can you (or your followers) advise on next steps? Happy to send the watch overseas if that's the best advice. Thanks in advance, Bill G.
Lucky who can service watches in your workshop. Sir I have question about quartz watches. If a second hand doesn’t match the indexes is it possible to fix it during the overhaul?
Hey Spencer hopefully you see this! I have a question regarding the adhesive in the crown. I'm rebuilding my own 7548 and was curious what is recommended when reassembling the crown regarding that adhesive. It is necessary? What would you use? Thanks!
Hello Spencer. I was wondering how do you know if the QT-99 is accurate? Do you calibrate it against another source, or you just trust that it is accurate by itself?
Spencer, I have the same watch, and has stopped running. Took it to a jeweler who told me it needs a new movement, Is that something you can do? please get back to me and thanks in advance....
I need to be accepting work first, but I'm totally booked up. I have no idea when I'll take jobs again, because there's so much to do here and not enough time to do it in. But thank you for asking, and I apologize for not having a better answer for you.
Hi, When you're regulating the watch and say that it's 'One hundredths', Wouldn't there need to be three digits after the decimal point?, I would say it was tenths of a second rather than hundredths 👍
The whole number in front of the decimal is one second. First number after the decimal is tenths. Second number is hundredths. Ten hundredths to make one tenth, ten tenths to make one second.
@@SpencerKleinVintageWatch , Of course, You're right, I was having a senior moment and somehow got mixed up between hundredths and thousandths (As in measuring workpieces for lathework!)
Amazing work Spencer. I love to see how well you are working with this beautiful watch. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice!
Hey man, does your 7548 guy take on new customers? Would love to use spencer, but I believe hes booked years out.
@@nhayes927 it's been so long I don't even remember his name.

Fun Fact:

I'm sorry, I don't know of anyone actually, I sincerely apologize!
I just got a 7548 - very excited to start working on it. Hoping it doesn't need a new coil, the only thing missing was one battery strap screw
How much do you charge for a service?

Great video!! A question here... Is it possible to change out the crown seal without taking the stem apart and the crown off? Thanks.
Who do you recommend for vintage seiko sales?
I realize Im pretty off topic but does anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Axel Derek Flixportal :P
@Robert Jayceon thank you, I signed up and it seems to work :) Appreciate it !
@Axel Derek happy to help xD
Another great restoration. Could you let us know what to look for when buying vintage watches? Thanks.
White lume. Dirty case. Scratched crystal. Ideally the seller is not a watch person, not a reseller.
@@SpencerKleinVintageWatch Wonderful answer. Thank you!

Why dont you show the people re-assembly of the crown , stem, washer..
How do I send you my 7540-700F for service?
