dluddy Posted July 17, 2007 Report Posted July 17, 2007 Great post Brad. Loved the story line with each rep
fitmic Posted July 17, 2007 Report Posted July 17, 2007 That's one h3ll of a collection. I envy you!!!
Dutchy Posted July 17, 2007 Report Posted July 17, 2007 I love EVERY single one of your watches...fantastic collection.
docblackrock Posted July 17, 2007 Report Posted July 17, 2007 Great collection DH with an even better write-up One question....the SC strap on the 217....you say 'gold stitch', assuming that's the same one Drew describes as 'copper' right? Or are we talking a discontinued stitch colours here? Oh and it pains me deeply to see that old version Ti Chrono Avenger, as I've been looking for one for years now without your luck
deltatahoe Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Posted July 17, 2007 Great collection Delta I think we have similar taste, great pics also... keep em coming! it's funny -- i was thinking the exact same thing when i looked at your collection Great collection DT with an even better write-up One question....the SC strap on the 217....you say 'gold stitch', assuming that's the same one Drew describes as 'copper' right? Or are we talking a discontinued stitch colours here? Oh and it pains me deeply to see that old version Ti Chrono Avenger, as I've been looking for one for years now without your luck thanks doc; re: the europelli strap, you are correct -- it is the black strap with copper stitching (thanks for the catch -- i've updated my description). deltatahoe
docblackrock Posted July 17, 2007 Report Posted July 17, 2007 (thanks for the catch -- i've update my description). deltatahoe As well as 'updating' my incorrect abbreviation of your ID Funny how the brain reads things, not Hoe as in garden tool but Tahoe as in the Lake, right? cheers DBR aka DRB aka BRD aka....ah, who cares anyway p.s. can I have bagseys (first option) if ever you go insane and cast out your Avenger?
deltatahoe Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Posted July 17, 2007 As well as 'updating' my incorrect abbreviation of your ID Funny how the brain reads things, not Hoe as in garden tool but Tahoe as in the Lake, right? i was wondering if you would catch that you're right -- it's tahoe (as in the lake), not hoe (as in garden tool or bitchy/slutty woman). it's funny how many people respond to my posts with "deltahoe". anyone who's ever been to the california delta (origin of the delta portion of my name) knows there are bunches of hoes out there; even though i'm a guy, i might actually need counseling after being called deltahoe so many times p.s. can I have bagseys (first option) if ever you go insane and cast out your Avenger? absolutely, although it's easy for me to give you first option given i don't plan on getting rid of it. it's become my tennis watch deltatahoe
Timepiece Posted July 18, 2007 Report Posted July 18, 2007 Well, now you made me curious about the bracelet of the IWC 3717. For everybody else who is thinking the same, here are the official pics. Looks much like the Omega SMP Bond bracelet (that I think is great ;-)) Would it not be great if a rep version of the IWC 3799 Top Gun would exist?! I think that like the (boys dreams) Bond watches it would fly for dealers !!! (I guess if you're real creative you could PVD a 3717 black and put it on a soft strap...)
eunomians Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 Deltatahoe, great collection. That's wonderful that you picked up the 1016 from Repaustria. What a great watch (had my eye on it for my father). Best regards
deltatahoe Posted July 19, 2007 Author Report Posted July 19, 2007 Deltatahoe, great collection. That's wonderful that you picked up the 1016 from Repaustria. What a great watch (had my eye on it for my father). Best regards hmm....this is a good thought....maybe i'll put a feeler out to see if my dad would have any interest in the explorer....given its small size, it's not getting as much wrist time as it should at the moment. it is such a well done, unique piece -- i just couldn't NOT get it... my dad may have you to thank for a new watch euno deltatahoe
docblackrock Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 absolutely, although it's easy for me to give you first option given i don't plan on getting rid of it. it's become my tennis watch Hmmm... That might explain your overextended backhand, which will, if not corrected, mean your mixed doubles game with Mrs Deltatahoe will fall apart, and due to your failings, she'll then partner up with Javier the pony-tailed pro at your club, who'll recommend extra 'practice', whilst billing you for the privilege.... You can of course, avoid this unfortunate scenario by selling said offending watch to me
deltatahoe Posted July 19, 2007 Author Report Posted July 19, 2007 amazing diagnosis doc unfortunately there is no mrs. deltatahoe.....but maybe if i had a better backhand the girls would swoon.... hmm....i think that's about as likely as me selling you my chrono avenger!!! deltatahoe
StormTooper4 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Posted January 3, 2008 WOW ,(late post just seen this) what a collection Green with envy. Wear them all well, thanks for the post
deltatahoe Posted November 23, 2008 Author Report Posted November 23, 2008 i just updated my post; as if there was any doubt before, now it's official -- i have a serious watch problem deltatahoe
jeff g Posted November 23, 2008 Report Posted November 23, 2008 The update makes me even more envious than the original post. What a great selection of beautiful watches. Your photo of your 063 is unreal. Thanks again, wear them well.
RobbieG Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 That is the way you do it right there. If anyone wants to know what a complete replica collection looks like you just found it. But delta, please humor us and give us a group shot if you would. That will be a sight to see!
repman1 Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 Great collection Deltahoe and amazing pics!
Cats Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 What a great collection Delta. This is what my wife is afraid of so i will block this post for her. Carpe Diem Cats

If anyone wants to know what a complete replica collection looks like you just found it. But delta, please humor us and give us a group shot if you would. That will be a sight to see! i've thought about doing a group shot before, but i can never seem to photograph multiple watches at once with any success anyone have suggestions on that front? i've been meaning to take some "family" photos with watches from each brand, but just haven't gotten around to it -- at any given point in time it seems like i've always got at least one watch off at the ziggy-spa or being AR coated... anyways, i'll do my best to try to take some group photos and/or a full-on group shot and post it here deltatahoe
JCYL Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 how's the quality of the watch boys black alligator strap on your PAM 183? from the photo, it looks fantastic! i'm thinking of buying a gator strap for my IWC
RobbieG Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Can't help you there. Distance and detail of subject makes it very difficult to get everything sharp except with no depth of field and then nothing is sharp except one spot anyway. Watches are funny like that. You would think you could just cabk off to a more landscape view and refocus and everything could be easily sharp but it ends up putting you in the worst possible position actually... i've thought about doing a group shot before, but i can never seem to photograph multiple watches at once with any success anyone have suggestions on that front? i've been meaning to take some "family" photos with watches from each brand, but just haven't gotten around to it -- at any given point in time it seems like i've always got at least one watch off at the The Zigmeister-spa or being AR coated... anyways, i'll do my best to try to take some group photos and/or a full-on group shot and post it here deltatahoe

Zack G. Posted March 13, 2009 Report Posted March 13, 2009 Beautiful watches you have there! I LOVE your audemars piguet royal oak offshore with the Kevlar strap. If you ever want to sell it I would consider buying it from you. Do you have anymore pictures of it?? Thanks!
