The Longines HydroConquest GMT is an addition to the HydroConquest line launched in 2007, and now available with GMT function. The diver comes in four different colors for the dial and bezel. And each color is available with either a stainless steel bracelet or a strap from fabric (NATO) or rubber in matching colors. It’s a plain, sporty and elegant appearance at a rather affordable price level given the specs.
It measures 41 millimeters, is executed in stainless steel and for the dial / bezel you can choose from green, black, brown, or blue. These are all in sunray ‘motif’, with a date window at 3 and a two-tone 24-hour scale with day/night indication around it. The bezel is unidirectional, notched and ceramic, with a luminescent capsule in the triangle at 12 o’clock. Reading the second time zone? Follow the hand with the triangle at the tip.
The Longines HydroConquest GMT has a power reserve of 72 hours
To ensure you can dive with it the crown is a screw-in type and the stainless steel case back is screwed down, and has an engraved Longines logo. It provides the watch a water resistance of 300 meters / 990 feet.
The Longines HydroConquest GMT runs on an automatic Longines caliber L844.5 with a silicon balance-spring and innovative components in non-magnetic materials to make it ten times more resistant to magnetic fields than the ISO 764 standard. The power reserve is 72 hours.
