THE STORY OF THE INLAID BERLIN WALL FRAGMENT AND GUITAR STRING PIECE

The authentic piece of wall encapsulated in the "Wind of Change" watch comes from the Berlin Wall, the symbol of the Cold War and the division of Germany. On the watch, the fragment of the wall is located to the east of the watch, in a space of 28 seconds, like the 28 years that separated Berlin. Each watch is made from a unique cutout in the wall - the result is singular each time, making each a unique piece.

The piece of guitar string comes from one of the Scorpions' guitars, used on their last tour in 2023 to play the song "Wind of Change", which became the anthem of the fall of the Wall. The strings were collected after concerts, and meticulously encapsulated in each automatic timepiece, at 3 o'clock

A string resonating with the rockers' chords—a lively, rich, profoundly felt “Wind of Change“ that brings you a bit closer to the band and the historic date of November 9 1989.
