15400 vs 15710 movements ?
So I thought I was set on the 15400 black dial version until I looked through the 160 page show your AP thread. Noticed quite a few people had the 15710 on a bracelet and that got me thinking do I want the diver instead. So was talking to my friend on the phone today he had a 15300 a few years ago and said he had a really bad experience, he had the watch for 4-5 years put it in for a service and ended up with a ��3000 bill and he said he believes the movements on the 15300/15400 don't hold up very well because AP insists on using ultra thin movements and they don't last as long.Just wanted to ask what people think about this if it's true or a lot of rubbish? Also what's the 15710 movement like is that ultra thin as well ?To be honest I don't know anything about movements just like to buy watches that look nice to me, so I look forward to your replies.

AP RO at clearwater and I chose a light polish
Hi everyone, I recently sent my AP RO for the pressure testing and 3rd year warranty. Upon inspection I was told the following:- case has small dents at 4 and 10 o'clock (purchased it preowned) - bezel shows minor scratches from normal wear- it appears case had been opened and there was debris in the movement. Based on conversations with Betsy, I decided to get a light polish as part of the service. I was told they will laser weld the dents on the case and clean out the movement at no charge. I decided to have the light polish since I'm having other things done and she said the watch will come back looking like new and I don't anticipate getting another polish on the watch for many years down the road. Needless to say, I can't wait to have it back. I definitely have to commend AP's Service representatives. They have been in constant contact with me and kept me informed throughout the entire process.I was wondering if anyone had pics of a recently lightly polished RO for reference. Tha

I think that my Diver is covered for options
Back when Panerai wasn't very well known and I was in love with the brand. I went a little overboard on straps. I had boxes with just about every permutation imaginable. I've been a little more restrained with my AP Diver.Many Thanks to YYZPAM for helping out.Bracelet on the watch and Left to right:AP OEM Rubber Strap, AP OEM Survivor Strap, AP OEM Black Hornback on the Black Survivor Buckle. I think that should do it?

Another incoming thread...sort of
A new baby at home coupled with a busy work schedule really cuts down on Rolex Forum time...I know I owe Thomas (TSW) and Connor (Steelerfan65) some wrist shots, which I am terrible at by the way.I picked up my first AP (Diver) back in June. I was thrilled to be in the club.I've always had a weakness for white dial chronographs and I have tried on the Safari while in Vegas a couple of times - I just loved it. I never thought I would be able to add it this soon.So a few weeks back I was able to add the Safari...Thanks again to DavidSW for another wonderful piece! The bad news...heading back to Vegas shortly...looking to shop for something 44mm or finally get to try on the white 15400...wish me luck!
