A vibrant, diverse history of Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples in the age of Romanticism � "Momentous and spellbinding."-Caroline Eden, Financial Times � "Endlessly fascinating."-Pratinav Anil, Times (UK) � Vesuvius is best known for its disastrous eruption of 79CE. But only after 1738, in the age of Enlightenment, did the excavations of Herculaneum and Pompeii reveal its full extent. In an era of groundbreaking scientific endeavour and violent revolution, Vesuvius became a focal point of strong emotions and political aspirations, an object of geological enquiry, and a powerful symbol of the Romantic obsession with nature. � John Brewer charts the changing seismic and social dynamics of the mountain, and the meanings attached by travellers to their sublime confrontation with nature. The pyrotechnics of revolution and global warfare made volcanic activity the perfect political metaphor, fuelling revolutionary enthusiasm and conservative trepidation. From Swiss mercenaries to English entrepreneurs, French geologists to local Neapolitan guides, German painters to Scottish doctors, Vesuvius bubbled and seethed not just with lava, but with people whose passions, interests, and aims were as disparate as their origins.

I’m so happy Tissot came out with this movement!
Beautiful classic beauty! I love watches with internal components that far outperform the price. A certified chronometer for 1100$? Unheard of. From a Watchmaker like Tissot? I couldn’t buy it fast enough! It has great accuracy and a very durable time tested movement. I can’t wait to own this watch for the rest of my life! Tissot, just keep putting this movement in more watches and I’ll keep buying them. (Seamaster or Submariner competitor please!)

It’s different colors in different light
Very high quality. It’s not a Rolex knock off , it’s a date just “style” just like the diver watches. They are not Rolex knock offs but in the same style. To be honest, I owned a blue date just brand new from the dealer and sold it because I could not read it ! I’m able to read this with its Roman numerals as opposed to the Rolex Baton style markets . It’s COSC CERTIFIED! I am just impressed with the blue version I own . Dial is beautiful.
