Rocken wie ein Hurrikan: Fünfzig Jahre Erfolgsgeschichte Die Scorpions sind der wohl erfolgreichste Rockexport aus Deutschland. Seit fünf Jahrzehnten touren die Hannoveraner unermüdlich um die Welt, haben von Rock in Rio bis Wacken Open Air jedes große Rockfestival schon einmal gespielt, der Heavy-Gemeinde harte Powerchords und den Pophörern unvergessliche Ohrwürmer geschenkt - aber eine umfassende Würdigung ihrer langen Karriere stand bisher noch aus. Vielleicht ist es kein Zufall, dass es jetzt kein deutscher Autor, sondern ein Kanadier ist, der sich darangemacht hat, das Phänomen Scorpions gründlich zu erforschen: Schließlich galten die Schwermetaller stets als Band, die im Ausland fast beliebter ist als zuhause. Ihre erste Goldene Schallplatte bekamen die Scorpions tatsächlich in Japan - 1976, für Virgin Killer. Und auch in Großbritannien und in den USA räumten Rudolf Schenker, Klaus Meine und Co. schon bald ordentlich ab. Spätestens in den Achtzigern waren sie allerdings auch in den deutschen Albumcharts Dauergast in den Top 10 und galten bei Metalfans ebenso viel wie Rainbow, Judas Priest oder Dio. Aber nicht nur das: Mit ihren großartigen Power-Balladen 'Still Loving You' und 'Holiday' erreichte die Band schließlich auch ein breiteres Publikum. Ab 1989 dann, als sie mit 'Wind Of Change' den Soundtrack für die deutsche Wiedervereinigung schufen, kam an ihnen niemand mehr vorbei. Ab jetzt kannte die Scorpions-Geschichte nur noch Superlative. Und diese Geschichte fängt Martin Popoff hervorragend ein: Er sprach ausführlich mit den Bandmitgliedern, heutigen wie früheren, und lässt sie über weite Strecken selbst erzählen, sodass der Leser vom unglaublichen Aufstieg der Scorpions aus erster Hand erfährt. Ergänzt um die Ansichten von Weggefährten wie Rob Halford, von Produzenten, Managern und sonstigen Kollegen, entstand ein packender Bericht über eine faszinierende Band - über ihre Erfolge, ihre Krisen, ihre Besetzungswechsel, ihre Persönlichkeiten, ihre Schwächen und Leidenschaften. Die erste umfassende Biografie der Scorpions!

Stunning Gentleman's Watch
Color: Grey
This is my second Tissot watch. It's quite stunning in person. The online photos don't do it justice. It has the look and feel of a much more expensive gentleman's watch which makes this purchase a great bargain. Tissot is a great reliable Swiss made watch brand. My first Tissot watch which is probably more than 20 years old still runs great. Very pleased with this purchase.

Good Tissot Watch
Color: Grey
Arrived on time, in its original box, include a 2 year international warranty, into the box include a book with the Tissot brand history in Switzerland. Algo a second book with a whole catalog of Tissot watches men and women. The watch looks better when you put in on your wrist. The “naval” blue really gives the clock a classy look. The stainless steel workmanship is really good, the metal is bright and perfectly polished. The metal wristband quality is very good, did not have any problem to adjust the size , I went to my preferred clock workshop for this job, they extracted a few pieces of the band to fit to my small wrist size. Have to get used to the butterfly latch, but after a few days, now I learned to open and close it without any effort. The clock it’s very accurate, I’ve been using my Tissot for near a month and it just increased a few seconds per week. I do the setup and check accuracy with my pc clock. In short, It”s a good value watch, nice, good looking, accurate.

Class and elegance
Color: Gold
I absolutely love this watch! My grandson also loved mine so I bought him one for Christmas. This is the 4th Citizen watch I have purchased. 2 are ecodrive and 2 are battery powered. I have to say I do like the battery powered watches better for their weight, lots lighter on your wrist than the ecodrive I regularly used to wear. This watch has taken a beating, as it seems like I'm always hitting the face on something, and has performed beautifully. I figured that I would've replaced the crystal by now but I haven't had to. My grandson admired and wanted mine, (I can't part with it because it has special meaning) so I bought him the identical model. I have worn mine in water, extreme cold, and out to dinner. It looks and performs beautifully. This watch is classy, elegant and beautiful and it's not a giant timepiece although you may have to take it to your local jeweler for band sizing. There's videos on u tube but I don't recommend trying that for taking links out. I say beautiful because as a woman wearing this watch it's not overwhelming and screaming look at me I'm wearing a man's watch. However this watch is handsome looking on men, my husband and grandson lol. The band is smooth, doesn't kink or pinch my wrist and when fitted properly it doesn't end up face down or sliding over and staying over on the outside of my wrist. Only drawback for me is I'm not used to the day dial and sometimes when setting the time bc some months are shorter I tend to be a day ahead, easy fix. I've gotten lots of compliments on this watch and would definitely buy it again

5-Star Review: Sleek, Reliable, and Worth Every Penny!
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
I recently purchased this Citizen watch, and I'm thoroughly impressed! The design is sleek and modern, perfect for both casual and formal occasions. The Eco-Drive technology is a game-changer-no battery changes needed, just sunlight or indoor light to keep it running. The build quality feels premium, and the stainless steel band is comfortable yet durable. It keeps time accurately, and the dial is easy to read. For the price, this watch offers exceptional value and style. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, eco-friendly timepiece!
