Longines unveiled Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve

From the outset of a journey spanning over seven decades of the Conquest collection, Longines proudly introduces the masterpiece edition, Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve. This luxurious timepiece exudes a classic charm inspired by the late 1950s, with its central figure narrating tales of excellence in beauty and genuine craftsmanship

Longines, the prestigious Swiss watch brand, beloved by enthusiasts worldwide for over 191 years, unveils its latest iconic classic model, the Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve. This release serves as a testament to celebrate over 70 years of the Conquest collection’s journey since its inception in 1954, up to the present day.

The standout feature of this latest model goes beyond its elegantly designed case and classic-style hands coated with Super-LumiNova®. It includes a rotating disc at the dial’s centre, featuring a superior function designed to indicate the power reserve through numbers from 64 to 0.

This enchanting function may indeed evoke considerable excitement, leading one to think of it as an innovation specifically devised by Longines for this particular model. However, this rotating disc is a product of advanced engineering ingenuity that Longines has crafted for its prestigious Hour-Angle model, developed for the aviation industry in the late 1920s. Additionally, the model’s unique identity is further enhanced by date display windows adorned with trapezoid-shaped applique at the centre of the timepiece.

The interest and uniqueness don’t end there. The beauty of the dial, separated into three sections in the Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve, in which enthusiasts are allowed to choose materials thoughtfully. It offers three sophisticated colours, including champagne, anthracite, and black, as well as tones of yellow gold, rose gold, and silver for all-hour markers. Additionally, the Caliber L896.5 mechanism, exclusively designed for Longines, plays a crucial role in driving the perfection of this extraordinary model. It allows owners to privately admire the exceptional craftsmanship through the case back, equipped with properties that resist magnetic fields higher than the ISO 764 standard by tenfold.

This timeless beauty is showcased in the form of a 38mm stainless steel case, allowing enthusiasts to choose between a satin or polished finish as wished. Additionally, it features double-sided anti-reflective sapphire crystal glass, enhancing visibility from both sides. Completing the ensemble are reinvented lugs, ensuring a better fit on the wrist for increased comfortability. The watch comes with black and grey straps adorned with new-style buckle steel pins, as shown in the latest model of the Conquest Heritage collection.
