Longines marks 70 years of Conquest with a fresh, new take on a historic model featuring an innovative central power reserve display on rotating discs.

CENTRE OF ATTRACTION

LAUNCHED IN 1954, the Conquest marked the first Longines watch line to have its name protected, by the Federal Intellectual Property Office in Berne, Switzerland. Self-winding and water-resistant from the outset, the Conquest line has always been associated with the world of sport and achievement. Symbolising this spirit of conquest, the collection was expanded in 1959 with a model featuring a one-of-a-kind power reserve indicator, consisting of two rotating discs located in the centre of the dial.

To mark the 70th anniversary of the Conquest collection, Longines has reimagined this classic with the new Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve. A striking tribute to the historic model, the power reserve is revealed on two rotating discs in the centre of the dial. This unique process, invented by Longines and used exclusively by the brand, places the power reserve indicator on the central uncoiling disc.
