Features

• A Heritage of Excellence
  The Longines Conquest collection is steeped in history and prestige. Originally launched over seven decades ago, the Conquest series was the very first Longines watch line to secure name protection by the Swiss Federal Intellectual Property Office in 1954. The Conquest Heritage models pay tribute to this legacy, seamlessly blending iconic designs from the 1950s with the cutting-edge advancements of contemporary horology.
• Classic Design Meets Modern Technology
  The Longines Conquest Heritage 38mm is thoughtfully designed, evoking the daring and creative spirit that defined the original series. Its round stainless steel case, measuring a versatile 38mm in diameter and only 10.8mm in thickness, captures a sophisticated silhouette that is ideal for both formal occasions and everyday wear. The elegant black lacquered polished dial features applied indexes and distinctive pink hands, further accentuated by Swiss Super-LumiNova® for clear visibility in any lighting condition.
  A detail that sets this model apart is the 18-karat gold medallion emblazoned with a fish motif on the case back—a subtle nod to the Conquest legacy and an emblem of Longines' commitment to craftsmanship and tradition.
• Durable and Resistant for Everyday Use
  While style is foundational, the Longines Conquest Heritage Watch is built to withstand daily demands. The scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective coating on both sides, ensures clarity and robustness against accidental scratches. Its 5-bar water resistance offers peace of mind for those unexpected splashes or rain showers, while the magnetic resistance provides additional protection for the delicate mechanical movement inside.
  The watch’s strap is crafted from supple calf leather in a classic black, lined with softer calf leather on the underside for enhanced comfort. The secure buckle ensures the watch stays firmly on your wrist, providing both practicality and a touch of refined luxury.
• Sophisticated Swiss Engineering
  At the heart of the Conquest Heritage 38mm lies the powerful Longines Caliber L888 automatic movement—a self-winding mechanical marvel that beats at 25,200 vibrations per hour. Thanks to its monocrystalline silicon balance-spring, this watch offers a remarkable power reserve of up to 72 hours, allowing you to set it aside for days without worrying about loss of accuracy. The magnetic-resistant components help maintain precise timekeeping, even in environments with high levels of electromagnetic interference.
