The 7548-7000 was the first watch that I bought myself in Jan 1985. It's a June 84 serial number, it's never been serviced and still keeps better time than the rest of my watches. Only wish I could get an original strap for it.
Nice video. I appreciate you showing the dial and case back on each. The bezel "ghosts" on a lot of these. I wonder if those were worn by servicemen in harsh climates. Pepsi Seikos and Pulsars were popular with servicemen in the 80s. My brother got one in Japan when he was in the Marine Corps around 1982. I admired it so much that he gave it to me. Unfortunately it was stolen when I was in college.
Hey I bought one of these from you! The second 700F you showed from March of 1981, I purchased it on Ebay in November of 2022. I thought it looked familiar, sure enough its the same serial number!
Interesting. I noticed the description in the book says "day in English for the morning hours and in Spanish for the afternoon hours." My 7548-700 F (blue dial, 1981) stays in English or Spanish morning and afternoon, unless I manually switch the language from Spanish to English.
What book is that? Correct display is either one or the other all day. You can choose the display language or symbol, depending upon which language you watch has, but it is supposed to show one all day until the change over. I still love these watches!
You are really obsessed in this Seiko 7548-7000 models. I have one myself bought in 1990 and it suddenly stopped working a few days ago (battery replaced a few months ago) Have you got any clue what can be wrong? A watch repair shop in Pattaya (Thailand) where I living told me they don't have any spare parts to this model and at the same time he broke the stem when he tried to get it out. Any suggestions? New movement? I don't want to replace the original movement. I have blue dial on my 7548-7000B watch.
There's a six digit serial number on the watch. The first two numbers signify the year and month respectively. They were made between 1978-85, so it's not possible to confuse the year with another. For Oct, Nov, Dec, the number is replaced by a O, N or D for the first letter of the month. Mine is from May 1983, so the serial number is 35.... For December 1978 it would be 8D.... Hope that helps.
I've been collecting these 7548s for nearly 20 years.
I can confirm I've never seen a black dial Pepsi 7548.

Nice seikos!! I'm searching for a pepsi bezel insert for my 82 700F.

That’s awesome! I sure like these! Hope you’re enjoying it!
@@northwind1967 Absolutely! I put in a new crystal, gaskets, and battery and its been doing great!
Great research and video! Will you be listing any of them?
An awesome video man! I have a July 83 700B. I was lucky as it's in very good condition and keeps 1 sec/mth.
I’m looking for a October of 1978 do you have one for sale ?

@@northwind1967 The book he has in his hands. See video from minute 2:18 to 2:20, the description makes that statement.

Incredible, thank you.
The stuff on the that kind looks like salt is moisture intrusion.
Hola te escribo desde España (Europa).tengo un 7548- 700F desde el año 1982 y aquí 700F significa esfera azul ,bisel Pepsi .Un saludo
These dails can easily be mistaken for black when there's no black dial for cross-reference!
Are you interested in selling the 1985 700F?
How can you find the date of manufacture?
the serial number gives you the year options and month options. There are also online databases to look at. Seiko was very consistent.

Mine is from May 1983, so the serial number is 35....
For December 1978 it would be 8D....
Hope that helps.
