Swiss watch brand Longines expands their HydroConquest collection by launching new models dressed in green hues.
Two new editions are available. Featuring a modernized design, the first model features a green ceramic bezel insert that matches the color of the dial. Its dial features a matte green dial.
Mounted on a stainless steel bracelet or green rubber strap, this model is available in two sizes: 41mm and 43 mm. This khaki green HydroConquest watch houses a self-winding mechanical movement L888.3 calibre (ETA A31.L02) with a power reserve of 64 hours.
The second HydroConquest model is a boutique edition. It comes in a 41mm diameter stainless steel case.
This model features a bright green vertical-brushed ceramic dial and houses L888.5 (ETA A31.L11) self-winding caliber designed exclusively for Longines. Featuring a silicon balance spring, this movement delivers a power reserve of 64 hours.
These new HydroConquest timepieces preserve the traditional style of diving watches. The distinctive characteristics of these HydroConquest watch models include water resistance to 300 meters, a unidirectional rotating bezel, a screw-down crown and case-back, crown-protection and a double security folding clasp with integrated diving extension.
