The
“Conquest” brand was patented through the WIPO on 25 May 1954. Since then this
name has been used for many successful models produced by Longines across the
years. The Conquest Classic collection has joined the brand’s other collections
of classical beauty that have helped to make Longines’ reputation and success
throughout the world. This line is dedicated to equestrian sports enthusiasts
who are not willing to compromise on elegance.
With a diameter of 42 mm, this chronograph houses the self-winding mechanical chronograph movement L678. The case is available in steel, in steel and rose gold cap or in 18 carats rose gold. The black or silvered dial is set with 9 applied indices coated with Super-LumiNova® and makes an elegantly contrasting background to the moonphase display.
It features the 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock, the 24-hour indicator and the subdial for the seconds at 9 o’clock, as well as the 30-minute counter and the day-and-month display at 12 o’clock.
The date is indicated by a half-moon central hand. Water-resistant to 5 bar, these models display a transparent case back through which its scintillating movement can be observed.
These chronographs are fitted on a black alligator strap or a steel or steel and rose gold cap bracelet, all having a triple folding safety clasp.
