A true classic among sports watches, the Longines HydroConquest line has been expanded with new models featuring a sleek and exclusive Longines GMT movement. Combining technical excellence and elegance, two hallmarks of the winger hourglass brand, these new versions have taken inspiration from the world of water sports, while drawing in Longines' historic expertise in developing watches with multiple time zones.

Useful for all travellers, the GMT function allows the time to be displayed simultaneously in two time zones, a complication which Longines introduced to its wristwatches as early as 1925.

The Longines HydroConquest GMT combines this function with the underwater sports codes that personify it. It's aimed at modern-day adventurers who love discovery, and at demanding sportsmen and women, and will accompany them wherever they go.

For this new generation of watches, Longines has fused retro-inspired design with the latest technological advances. Featuring the exclusive new Longines GMT calibre equipped with a silicon balance-spring and innovative components in non-magnetic materials, this new movement is ten times more resistant to magnetic fields than the ISO 764 benchmark standard. Extremely precise, it also has a power reserve of up to 72 hours.

Distinguished by its new unidirectional notched ceramic bezel, fitted with a luminescent capsule and screw-in crown, the watch's alternating polished and satin-finished surfaces add a sophistication and elegance to the models.

The green, brown, black and blue sunray dials are enhanced by a two-tone 24 hour scale. The gilt or silver polished hands and hour-markers are coated with Super-LumiNova®, making them easy to read in any circumstances, and are round at 6 and 9 o'clock, and triangular at 12 o'clock. At 3 o'clock, the date window shows the date, and the arrow-shaped GMT indicator matches the colour of the dial decals.

Water resistant to 300m, the new Longines HydroConquest GMT models are fitted with a stainless steel bracelet, with completely redesigned H-shaped links. It is also, for the first time at Longines, equipped with a micro-adjusting clasp.

Complementing the colours of the dials, the new models are also available with a blue or black rubber strap with micro-adjusting folding clasp for the perfect fit and optimal comfort. A NATO bracelet in khaki-green or beige is also available.

The new Longines HydroConquest GMT is perfect for every adventure. The world is truly for playground!
