Longines Just Revived a 1950's Complication in This Near-Perfect Watch

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Today I get hands on with the new Longines Conquest Heritage Central Power Reserve and share my view on why I think this is the Ultimate Longines (or even a grail watch under $5000)!
Massive thanks to Sincere Fine Watches for lending this watch!

    Oh wow, that is really really nice. Longines continue knocking it out of the park. Agree on the AD discount point.

    This is very close to perfect but IMO they should have made the numbers on the power reserve indicator static. It looks off when the numbers aren’t aligned with the hour markers.

    Good one there Abdullah. I agree that the power reserve is a yes and no thingy. There is no right or wrong answer to that. Depending on personal preference. If you have no subscribed to my buddy here make sure you do it 😁👍✌

    Hello, and thanks for this video. I'll not buy this watch, just because I bought 1 dress watch from a microbrand few months before, but I fully agree what you said. And especially the skycrapers style hands that I didn't notice. 😅

    With the price tag, I expected 4 hertz and 100 m water resistance. But other than that it’s a great watch.

    I don't mind the price because Longines can almost always be had at a good discount from AD, especially once the hype has died down. And that's if you're looking at brand new models. But yes, the price hike of the recent models could be a indication of where they might be headed.

    I am not saying this is not good. But patient will get money. I saw a dress GMT (Conquest?) just issued yesterday. Movement L844. Same as my HC GMT. 18K rose gold. 1400 Pounds. Very good price. My heart beat go fast.

    Thanks for the review. Watch looks great. One point I’m confused about - Do the numbers on the power reserve rotate? If so, what is the point of the center hand? If not, why is the center dial not aligned with the outer dial?

  • @firemanaontube

    Interestingly, both the center hand and the power reserve numeric ring rotates. I played with it and how it works is that when watch is being wind up, the numeric ring rotates clockwise. when power is being consumed, the numeric ring stays still but the center hand rotate clockwise.

    Why have a power reserve indicator ? Leave a watch unworn for 2 days , it will need 30 turns, but 4 days ? Anyone with a manual watch knows the feeling when you’ve wound your watch “too much” and the stem hits that dead spot, and you kick yourself for overwinding ? The power gauge prevents that.

    You can’t overwind it and the dial is a fantastic idea especially if you don’t wear it constantly

    Also the dials and movements are incredible. But yes, in terms of the fit and proportions, that's where they get beat by the competition.

    I’m very sorry but a power reserve indicator on an automatic watch is USELESS! If you wear it it will not stop. If you don’t wear it, wind it up when you need.

    Agreed. But this is, like most reissues, a tribute to a historic model. This piece will definitely excite the history buffs more than those looking for practical tool watches.
