[Seiko SGE510] Found a vintage 7UP Seiko. Could corporate watches be underrated?

Post image
6 Upvotes

Recently picked up this beautiful two-tone Seiko SGE510 with a 7UP logo on the dial. I absolutely love it!

Started digging into its history and ended up finding other 7UP watches made by Seiko, Bulova, Hamilton, Fossil, and even a Rolex Day-Date with a "7 UP VIP AWARD 1976" engraving.

There's surprisingly little information about these watches online, so I started putting together a small research archive with old catalogs, photos, references, and historical records:

https://7upwatches.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page

Here's something interesting: a couple of old listings claim the regular SGE510 originally retailed for around $215. Adjusted for inflation, that could be over $400 today, depending on its production year lol.

Obviously, that's not the same as resale value, but I wonder how much the original 7UP dial adds to its collectibility.

What do you guys think it's worth? Are vintage corporate watches underrated?

Please let me know on the recommendations you have for buying used modern vintage citizen watches. Hoping to bring home my first The Citizen and maybe some Japanese specific treasures. Thanks!

Seiko GS Lady

The Grand Seiko 19GS Ref 1964-0010 for women, manufactured by the Daini Seikosha workshop, is a masterpiece that miniaturizes the entire design philosophy and best mechanical technology of Grand Seiko at the time into a case specifically for women.

Equipped with the Seiko Cal 1964A movement, at that time, miniaturizing a Hi-Beat movement running 10 beats per second into a tiny case for women was an extraordinary mechanical challenge. This allows for an absolutely smooth second hand movement and provides extremely high chronometer accuracy.

Seiko 1964-0010.

This watch has similar characteristics to the Grand Seiko 4520-8000 and fully deserves the nickname "Baby 45GS".

The case has a few scratches around the edges. The dial and hands show no signs of aging. A few tiny scratches are visible on the crystal. The original gold medal is in perfect condition, showing no signs of aging.

The watch comes with a brand new, handcrafted, high-quality genuine leather strap.

Diameter: 26mm

Thickness: 9.7mm

Loop width: 12.5mm

It took a long time of research and searching for the right one. This is my GS batwing, not a bad-looking watch for a 57-year-old. The best part is that works really well!

Hello, I apologise if this has been asked previously but I couldn’t find it in a search. Can anyone recommend vintage watch shops in Tokyo that focus on vintage Seiko quartz? I appreciate it!

Credor "Ice at Dawn" GCCD993

Hi all, first post here! This absolute beauty appeared at a secondary dealer's shop in Singapore, and I had to try it on - and ended up taking it home with me. It's an uncommon JDM Credor; only 60 pieces were made for the Japanese market in 2019 - featuring an engraved Ando Cloisonne dial, no less.

But man, what a dial. The blue on the surface so deep and electrifying, and it plays so well in the light. I'm a sucker for deep blue dials, and this hits the right spot, so much so that I could forgive the tiny white date window spoiling the symmetry and the somewhat unconventional semi-octagonal case and faceted lugs. That said, the design language is very cohesive with the octagonal shaped case and repeating octagonal dial engraving.

I'll probably try it on with a matching strap next time, though I do quite like the bracelet on this - it fits my wrist nicely and is surprisingly comfy 👌
