Description
The Longines Conquest is an automatic chronograph for wearers who want a classic Swiss sports watch with a clean silver dial. The 42mm stainless steel case and matching bracelet give it a balanced, sturdy look for everyday wear.
Inside runs the Swiss automatic L898 movement. It shows hours, minutes and small seconds at 3 o'clock, while the chronograph uses a central 60-second hand, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock and a 30-minute counter at 9 o'clock. The case is stainless steel with a sapphire crystal and a stainless steel bezel.
The screw-down case back is transparent and fitted with sapphire crystal, so the movement can be seen. The bracelet closes with a triple safety folding clasp that opens with a push piece, and the 22mm lug width suits a range of straps if you want to change the look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wear the Conquest in the shower or pool?
The listing does not give a water resistance rating, so it is safest to keep this Longines Conquest dry. For daily wear, office use and light weather splashes it is fine, but remove it for swimming, showering or sport involving water until an authorised dealer confirms the rating.
How many subdials does it have and what do they measure?
The Longines Conquest chronograph has a central 60-second hand, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock and a 30-minute counter at 9 o'clock. Small seconds run at 3 o'clock. This gives you timing up to 12 hours, well beyond a typical sport or daily timing need.
What movement is inside and does it need a battery?
It uses the Swiss automatic L898 movement, so there is no battery to replace. The watch is wound by wrist motion. If you set it aside for a few days, it will usually need a quick wind and a time reset before wearing again, and regular service keeps it accurate.
Will a 42mm case fit my wrist?
The case is 42mm wide and 14.3mm thick with a 22mm lug width, which suits most average to larger wrists. On a smaller wrist it may feel tall, so try it on first. The bracelet has a triple safety folding clasp for secure fit.
How does it compare with a Tissot or Hamilton automatic chronograph?
The Longines Conquest offers sapphire crystal on both the front and the screw-down case back, plus a triple safety folding clasp. Tissot and Hamilton alternatives are worth considering for similar money, but check whether they provide sapphire on both sides and the same clasp security.
Who is this watch suitable for and can I change the strap?
This model suits wearers who want a classic Swiss mechanical chronograph for office and weekend use. The 22mm lug width means you can fit other 22mm straps if you want a more casual look than the stainless steel bracelet, which is a simple change.
Editor's take
Longines Conquest is the sporty line of a brand that has timed athletic events for over a century, and this 42mm chronograph keeps that spirit in a restrained silver-dial package. It suits someone who wants a Swiss mechanical chronograph for the office and weekends alike.
The heart is the L898 automatic movement, which drives a layout with a central 60-second hand, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock and a 30-minute counter at 9 o'clock, with small seconds at 3. The sapphire crystal on the front and the screw-down sapphire case back protect the dial and show the rotor at work. The case and stainless steel bezel give it a solid, uniform look.
The main drawback is the lack of a stated water resistance rating, so treat it as a dry-land watch and avoid swimming or showering until you have confirmed the rating with an authorised dealer. At 14.3mm thick it also sits tall under a fitted cuff, and the silver matt dial offers less contrast than a darker one in dim light.
It is a good fit for buyers who value mechanical chronographs and like a bracelet with a triple safety folding clasp. For a similar budget, a Tissot or a Hamilton automatic chronograph is worth a look, though few offer this combination of sapphire front and back.
