Stepping up in Longines's range
The Conquest line dates to 1954, when Longines began building watches intended to keep pace with competitive sport — accurate under pressure, robust enough to mean it. Seventy years on, the collection holds that brief, and this 34mm iteration carries the same L888 calibre that sits inside the larger models: a movement built around a silicon balance spring, which makes it resistant to the magnetic fields that quietly degrade most mechanical watches over time. The 72-hour power reserve means a watch left on the nightstand Friday evening is still running Monday morning. The snailed sunray blue dial does what that finish is designed for — it shifts between a pale, almost silvery tone in flat light and something considerably deeper when caught at an angle, so the watch reads differently across a day. Applied baton indices and rhodium-plated hands keep the layout clean without flattening it. The exhibition caseback is worth turning the watch over for: the L888 is a movement Longines is confident enough to show. The triple safety folding clasp takes a little learning but rewards the patience — it is the kind of fastening that, once set correctly, stays put through whatever the 100-metre rating suggests it can handle.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
Will the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Does it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
How long does it run for when it's not worn?
About 72 hours fully wound — enough to sit off the wrist over a weekend and still be running.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 34mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
Cheapest place to buy
Goldsmiths is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
Who are Goldsmiths?
Goldsmiths has been selling watches in Britain since 1778 and is part of the Watches of Switzerland Group, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. They are an authorised dealer, so a watch comes with the manufacturer’s own warranty.
