This Week’s Watch — Week 4: Longines Conquest 39mm
Took a while to track down the 39mm version, but definitely worth it, as I think it’s really the goldilocks size for this type of watch. I’m a fan of the Explorer DNA coupled with the printed high-contrast tooly look of the Sinn 556a.

Conquest and Hydroconquest are very underrated lines. Congrats!
Longines spirit!
I have an ever changing wish list and the Conquest is always on it. 10/10👍
Nice. Cheers 🍻
I have the Conquest VHP and love it! I just wish they hadn’t put a butterfly clasp bracelet on the damn thing.
I loved owning my Conquest for all the same reasons. However, I wish the bracelet edges were smoother. After a day of wear it’s a bit harsh. Otherwise, it’s a favorite for sure. That inky black dial
@Bearclaw @Ultradoug , totally agree, the bracelet is definitely the weak point of this watch. Polished center links, no taper, and butterfly clasp :/ if it were a simple 3 link, brushed with a regular clasp and 4 holes of micro adjust, it might’ve been the ultimate affordable Explorer alternative. Still an awesome watch though!
