Dieser Essay nimmt Fäden aus der Vergangenheit auf, um sie in der Gegenwart miteinander zu verknüpfen: Er beginnt mit Seidenraupen in einem Leipziger Kleingartenverein, die für die NS-Rüstungswirtschaft gezüchtet wurden, um daraus Fallschirmseide zu gewinnen. Im Mai 1941 überfielen Tausende deutsche Fallschirmjäger Kreta, es war die größte Luftlandeschlacht der Militärgeschichte. Während der deutschen Besatzung 1941-44 kam es dort zu Massenexekutionen, Dörfer wurden niedergebrannt. Die kretischen Frauen, die selbst Seidenraupen züchteten, verarbeiteten die deutschen Fallschirme später zu Taschentüchern. Zeitzeuginnen erzählen über die Verbrechen der Wehrmacht und erinnern sich an das Spinnen, Weben und Nähen der Seidenfäden - weibliche Memoriertechniken, wo Programm und Muster ineinander übergehen. Sie bilden ein Gegennarrativ zur einseitigen Geschichtsschreibung, die oft allein die Helden im Blick hat. Deborah Jeromin ist bildende Künstlerin. Seit 2014 arbeitet sie zur NS-Seidenraupenzucht als Rüstungswirtschaft und den Folgen der Luftlandeschlacht auf Kreta 1941. This essay takes up threads from the past in order to weave them together in the present. The story begins with silkworms in a Leipzig allotment association. The worms were bred for the Nazi arms industry, and silk was extracted from them as material for parachutes. In May 1941, thousands of German paratroopers landed on Crete in the largest airborne invasion in military history. The Germans occupied the island from 1941 to 1944, carrying out mass executions and burning villages to the ground. The Cretan women, who bred silkworms themselves, later worked the German parachutes into handkerchiefs. Women who witnessed events at the time recount the crimes of the Wehrmacht and recall the spinning, weaving, and sewing of silk thread-female techniques of memorization in which program and pattern merge. They constitute a counter-narrative to the one-sided historical account that often focuses only on the heroes. Deborah Jeromin is a visual artist. Since 2014, she has been working on Nazi silkworm breeding as an aspect of the arms industry and on the aftermath of the 1941 airborne invasion of Crete.

Beautiful watch but flawed
Color: Gold Face/Gold Band, Color: Gold Face/Gold Band
This is a decent quality watch for the price. Been wearing daily for a few months now. It has maintained its color and been resistant to scratches. The sub dials are a fully functional timer/chronograph. Calendar is great addition. The band is good quality with tight fit. Mine came with a sizing tool which was awesome. Removed 3 links for a perfect fit. Not a big fan of the butterfly latch on the band as it can release when you bend your hand down, but for the look and price, I don't mind. Unfortunately, the other day, I took the family to Lake Tahoe where I slipped into the water at the shore. It was about a foot deep and soaked my clothes but no big deal. Shortly after I checked the time and saw water on the inside of the glass. I then noticed the reset button for the chronograph had fallen out. I thought it must have been from falling into the water though I couldn't understand how my wrist could have jarred the button out. When I got home, I found the button on the floor in front of the watch box that I keep it in. This means it just randomly fell out. It pushes back in but can be easily removed and the chronograph no longer works at all. The watch still runs but the water doesn't seem to want to dry out. Very disappointed as I really liked this watch. I wanted to contact Olevs about the 12 month quality warranty they claim on Amazon but couldn't find a way to contact them directly on Amazon. No contact info or links. The only options were product and seller feedback. Oh, and an address in China. Not much help. Glad to revise my review if the seller reaches out.

Stunning Automatic Watch With TopTier Durability and Precision
Color: Grey
“I got this Tissot PRX for my cousin’s birthday and bro fell in LOVE instantly. This thing keeps time like a beast, never slows down, never lags. Automatic movement, so no batteries, no drama. Durability? Stupid good. You can hit it, bump it, live life rough, it still looks box fresh. Size wise it was almost perfect. I just had to remove two links, nothing big. It’s light, functional, comfortable, doesn’t weigh you down, doesn’t get in the way but more importantly I can say this watch is in everyone’s eyesight when we wear it. Cause of course I had to get another one! Basically. I gave him a very nice piece as a gift, and now he’s walking around like he owns Switzerland.

Excellent value for an automatic watch, keeps VERY good time.
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
I've only had the watch for a day but wanted to leave a quick review on it to share a couple of notes. So far it keeps VERY good time, better than any of the automatics I own (including a Rolex Submariner, Tag Heuer Aquaracer, Tag Heuer Formula One, and several other sub $1k watches). I set it to an atomic time app on my phone yesterday and 24 hours later it's still SPOT on - hasn't gained/lost even a 1/10 of a second. I was shocked to see it's kept PERFECT time for the last day, I'm really blown away so far. I've worn it the entire time, we'll see how well it keeps time while being stored in a winder. This picture shown is the watch with a 22mm leather band on it, fit's without any issues (just need to squeeze in the leather a tad). I doubt it would work with a 22mm metal bracelet, but leather works great. Just FYI since the 21mm lug width is kind of odd. The face isn't quite a lustrious as the images make it look, but it's still a great-looking watch. For a sub $1000 automatic you can't go wrong, this is a fantastic watch at a great price. It'll be my daily driver for some time I'm sure. If I have any issues in the future I'll update the review.

Really cool and beautiful watch. Although my specific unit runs 5 seconds fast every day—at first it’s annoying, but eventually you stop caring. 🤣
