Longines Launches New Sport Watch Collection in India
The new Longines Conquest watch collection is targeted at the sportsmen and women who want to achieve performance without sacrificing elegance. At least that’s what the company says.
The fact is, these watches are a little weird. They’re made of a combination of stainless steel and ceramic, all put together in a really ‘elegant’ way, not too flashy but definitely not unnoticeable.
I can’t say they aren’t looking good, but they are simply too simple form y tastes. I don’t see anything that makes them stand out in any way.
The part that worries me most is the ceramic. I’ve nothing against it, but in any sport, you have sudden moves, accidents, unexpected turns that may shatter ceramic. On any other watch, I would understand it, but on a sports watch, that’s a little too out there.
However, the official specification are promising. The watches resist up a 300m depth, have lateral protection for the crown and a triple folding safety clasp.
We’ll see how successful this line of watches will be.
