Added a 15707CE to the collection
Lovey watch. Weight is so different from the AP Safari. Overall, I can see this one sticking around a while.
Here’s a picture of putting it on the first time yesterday and this morning after a drive in the 911. The orange and black go just perfectly with the old Porsche VDO gauges. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats OP! I have had my eye on this one for a while. In my mind either this or the aquanaut would be my daily watch if I could obtain them. Unfortunately one is unobtainable and the other one is out of production. Since you have both I am interested to know what you think about dailying a PP aquanaut vs an AP 15707CE.

So as long as you buy a watch matching your car it´s fine.....the other way round could be more "interesting"
Looks great |

I love the Aquanaut. Such a clean watch. Extremely light weight. Compared to even a regular sub it feels like you’re wearing nothing. Very under the radar. I bet most folks think it’s a Apple Watch on the rubber strap. The AP, even under 14mm, would be tough to get under a dress shirt and jacket. I haven’t tried it yet, but I will. I think the AP will be a weekend watch for me, and will save my PP and JLC perpetual calendar for my dress watches. The AP looks awesome. Really like the ceramic. I didn’t try it before I bought it, and I am pleased with the purchase. I think I’ll get the orange strap for it, as well. I can see that being a perfect summer strap.

Congrats, welcome to the club. And yes, get the orange strap. Gives it a bit more punch.
I wear mine on weekends as well. |

It’s such a great watch. I ended up getting a lightly obsessed with getting one a couple of years back...and am delighted that I did.
Congratulations on picking one up. Wear it in great health |

Great summer watch, get that orange strap on it and head for the beach, and bring a long stick with which to beat off all the girls.

I currently own two. Had a few 911’s in my time, started early! Went from a ‘84 to brand new 991.2 with a few in between and have settled down now with a ROW ‘81 SC and a ‘97 993 Carrera. Both incredible cars and the 993 I think is the perfect blend between air cooled analog driving and modern day convenience and features. ‘81 is Black Metallic and the ‘97 is Ocean Blue Metallic.

Nice!
I used to own a 15703.ST, but yours is the nicest Diver in the collection in my opinion.
