Blending performance and style into a functional artwork, Longines has expanded its collection of stunning timepieces with the addition of the HyrdroConquest GMT.
Originally launched in 2007, HyrdoConquest pushed the boundaries of form and function, continuously transforming the watch landscape, and just last year, the Swiss luxury watchmaker released its 41mm diameter GMT models.
The brand has recently expanded the HydroConquest family with the addition of new 43mm diameter models.
Alternating polished and satin-brushed faces, this new generation still has all the features that made the HydroConquest GMT so iconic, such as being water-resistant up to 30 bar (300 metres), robust, and with a unidirectional rotating ceramic bezel, screw-in crown, and screw-down case back.
This new-generation stainless steel case with screw-down back houses the exclusive Longines GMT calibre L844.5, which features a silicon balance spring and innovative non-magnetic components.
This movement is more than ten times more resistant to magnetic fields than the ISO 764 reference standard. It boasts extreme precision and a power reserve of up to 72 hours.
The new HydroConquest GMTs come in black, blue, or green dials and have a sapphire crystal with a multi-layer antireflective coating.
The Super-LumiNova® coating on the indexes allows for easy reading in any lighting condition.
The date can also be viewed in the 3 o’clock window. The arrow-shaped GMT indicator matches the colour of the dial decals.
The 24-hour scale is displayed in two tones on the bezel to indicate when it is night or day.
To top it all off, the new models come with stainless steel bracelets featuring H-shaped links or blue or black rubber straps.
All bracelets include a double-safety folding clasp with micro-adjustment.
