Help me choose my first AP...

I consolidated my collection and now I’m down to a black dial 116500. I am looking to get my first AP. Thinking about adding a 15710ST black dial. I have a 7” flat wrist. Any suggestions?

How about the white dial one since your Daytona is black.

Not sure how I feel about white. I got to try on the ceramic AP Diver on at Govberg, and really liked the design... but I feel like the $10k+ premium ceramic isn’t worth it to me.

If you’re after an AP on rubber, and like the look of the 15710 then you won’t be disappointed by it.

I can’t get enough of mine, ticks all the boxes. Functionality, comfort, design, quality etc. and would make a great compliment to your Daytona.

Great choice, altho I would go with a white D500 then, probably a fairly painless swap with the black one if you're so inclined.

Yeah spring for a 44 in C/SS/TI. Much more carefree wear, cooler looking and does not wear a ton bigger for someone with your wrist size imho. I have owned several divers and multiple 44s and the 44s are superior and worth the premium to me.

I can’t find the 15719 reference. Is that the correct number?
