Brand new to Seiko and am in need of some help.

Looking for a vintage orange dial size 40+mm, either auto or quartz (but auto preferably). Which model should I look for?

Pickings are slim in orange and that size.

You can look for a nice 7548-700C.

Here is mine from 1982.

I have a specific rotation I follow. I prefer the vintage over most of the modern so I am selling many of those to consolidate and cherry pick a few more vintage I want.
