Stepping up in Longines's range
The Conquest line dates to 1954 and has always sat at the point where Longines makes its case for daily-wear precision: not a dress watch softened into uselessness, not a sport watch that refuses to behave at a desk. The L888 calibre is the movement that anchors this argument, built around a monocrystalline silicon balance-spring that ignores magnetic fields ordinary lever escapements find disruptive — a meaningful advantage for anyone who works near screens and motors all day. The 72-hour power reserve means a watch set down on a Friday evening is still running Monday morning. At 10.90mm thick, this sits closer to the dress end of the spectrum than most 41mm automatics at this rating, and it will clear a cuff without difficulty. The sunray blue dial shifts between near-navy in flat light and something considerably livelier when caught at an angle, and the applied baton indexes give it enough structure to read cleanly at a glance. The exhibition caseback is a quiet reward — the L888 is worth looking at.

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 men's.
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.
