Longines HydroConquest New Addition in the Two-Tone Collection

The winged hourglass’ robust dive watch with a slightly luxurious appeal.

New two-tone variations are enhancing one of the leading Longines collections, the HydroConquest line. These timepieces are true sports watch references inspired by the world of diving, combining performance with style. The blue, grey, black and green variations of this collection are complemented by two-tone variations in steel and rose PVD or steel and yellow PVD for an additional touch of elegance.


 
Longines has secured a solid reputation in the field of chronographs and elegant, vintage-inspired watches these days. Yet, we should not forget that the brand also has a sizeable collection of sports watches, including one competent, quite accessible diver’s watch named HydroConquest. First launched in 2007, the model has since made its way up in the category and was fully revised in 2018, with upgraded materials, a simplified design and strong mechanical credentials. This year, the collection expands again with the addition of 11 new editions. Stylish, less instrumental, a bit more lifestyle-oriented yet still robust dive watches to be used and abused, here is the Longines HydroConquest 41mm Two-Tone Collection.


 
An important step in the life of the Longines HydroConquest came in 2018 when the brand decided to update it. The design became cleaner, slightly less rugged but more contemporary, the materials were upgraded to include a ceramic bezel insert, and the movement was updated with the brand’s latest technology to keep its competitive advantage. Available in multiple editions, it is also possible to choose between 43mm and 41mm cases. And since 2021, there is the option for two-tone cases.
 
THE COOL LOOK OF TWO-TONE
We’ve seen a strong resurgence of two-tone, steel-and-gold watches recently, something that might have to do with the comeback of the 1980s in fashion… And, admittedly, when done right and when well dosed, a discreet inclusion of gold on a sports watch can be rather enjoyable. As long as it’s not too flashy, it can even bring a certain freshness and laid-back flair to usually super-serious models.


 
The new Longines HydroConquest two-tone is fitted with the self-winding L888 calibre. The movement comes with an improved 72-hour power reserve compared to the previous 64-hour running time of 2018 models. It also comes with a silicon balance spring to protect against magnetic forces and beats at a rhythm of 25,200 vibrations per hour. As always, this movement sets the watches apart from the rest of the 2824-powered models and brings a strong competitive advantage.
