Aquamarine Blue is a very deep, dark navy solid with a historical character quite different from what the "aquamarine" name might suggest — at #093379 it reads as a deep, almost dark-navy blue rather than the light blue-green typically associated with aquamarine gemstones. Code 5707 places it firmly in the late 1950s, offered from 1957 through 1959 on the 356. It is historically significant as one of the earliest documented blues in the Porsche colour archive, predating the vivid palette explosion of the 1960s and 1970s. Three documented examples reflect its expected rarity from this era.
