Listed for sale is hard to find Longines Conquest Power Reserve dating from the late 1950s to early 1960s. This is the gold cap variant and is in excellent condition throughout. Fish-in-kelp logo on the case back is in great shape. Cal. 294 movement runs strong and all complications are functional. Date changes at midnight. Watch comes mounted on a NOS 11/16 pigskin strap with Longines buckle. I will also include a NOS 18mm single pass brown nylon strap as an extra.
Some conditional items of note: Some light wear is present on the inner dial and on the outer dial between 1 and 2 markers. Signed crown is likely a replacement. Inner dial resets near, but not exactly on, zero with no power.
