The launch of the newConquest V.H.P. chronographs from LonginesIt completes the quintessential sports collection of this watchmaking manufacture. With the usual elegance that characterizes watchesLongines, the Conquest V.H.P Collection. It is an emblematic line in which, in addition to style, we find unmatched standards of precision thanks to quartz.
SinceLonginesestablished a precision record in 1954 with the first quartz watch, its history has always been linked to the development of high-precision technological elements at the service of judges and athletes. A story that culminated in 1969 with the Ultra-Quartz, the first quartz movement designed to equip wristwatches. This is the movement that has traditionally been incorporated into watches from the Conquest V.H.P collection. since its launch in 1984.

Faithful to the collection's commitment to precision, the Swiss firm has launched theseConquest V.H.P. chronographs from Longines, with new calibers. Its movement is characterized by a very high precision in the case of an analog watch (± 5 s/year) and also by the ability to reset the hands after a blow or exposure to a magnetic field, thanks to the DPR system (rolling position detection). To these virtues that make them chronographs with an exceptional movement, we must add a very long-lasting battery and a perpetual calendar.
Los Conquest V.H.P. chronographs from Longinesmade of steel, they have a careful design that indicates hours, minutes and seconds, and has a 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 9 o'clock and a 60-second counter in the center. It has optimal handling thanks to the intelligent electronic crown and two different indicators that allow you to anticipate the end of the battery's useful life.
