In celebration of the longstanding partnership with the French Open, Longines has unveiled a new chronograph keeping time to one hundredth of a second to add to its Conquest collection: the Conquest 1/100th Roland Garros. The Conquest 1/100th series responds to the needs of athletes, professionals and sports fans, besides many others, since it measures multiple intermediary times and has an intuitive analogue display that shows the time to one hundredth of a second using a separate hand.
The Conquest 1/100th Roland Garros is powered by the latest generation of quartz movement developed exclusively for Longines by ETA, the L440. This new model includes a microcontroller with a flash memory that allows the watch to be reset instantly and allows intermediary times to be recorded.
With a diameter of 41 mm, the Conquest 1/100th Roland Garros steel model has an anthracite face that displays hours, minutes, small seconds at 6 o'clock, the date and other chronographic functions: a central seconds hand, a 30-minute stopwatch at 2 o'clock and a 12-hour stopwatch at 10 o'clock. The hand in orange – a subtle hint at the iconic clay of the French Open courts – displays time to one hundredth of a second and is the watch's crowning glory at the centre. The model is also fitted with a steel bracelet and a butterfly clasp.
The model is fitted with a steel bracelet and a butterfly clasp, while its case back is engraved with the logo of Roland Garros.
