This incredibly attractive Longines Conquest V.H.P. (Very High Precision) Quartz is a superb example of Longines' pioneering high-accuracy quartz technology, housed in an ultra-lightweight two-tone titanium and gold-tone case, this timepiece is a standout example of 1980s and 1990s sports elegance. The watch features a crisp matte grey dial accented by gold-tone hands, applied hour markers, and a practical date window at 3 o'clock, all protected beneath a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
This example is presented in fantastic condition and has clearly been very well cared for. The brushed titanium and gold-tone finishes across both the case and the original integrated bracelet remain sharp and clean, showing only minimal, light signs of careful handling.
Particularly noteworthy is the original Longines V.H.P. quartz movement. This early-generation high-precision movement, based on the ETA 255.561, incorporates Longines’ innovative dual-oscillator and thermo-compensated technology, designed to provide exceptional accuracy. It also features an End-of-Life (E.O.L.) battery indication. This sophisticated movement represents an interesting and important chapter in the development of Longines’ V.H.P. technology.
The movement is working perfectly and is keeping excellent time, making this a particularly appealing example for anyone looking for a vintage Longines with both incredible styling and genuinely interesting high-precision quartz technology.
