Longines chose the rooftop of The Fullerton Bay Hotel in Singapore, with its breathtaking views of the sea and the famous Marina Bay Sands Hotel, to present the HydroConquest new models, which preserve the traditional style of diving watches.
A coloured ceramic insert has been added to the bezel of the new HydroConquest models. This highly technical and scratch-resistant material enhances the sporty, modern character of the watches. The HydroConquest collection is inspired by the unique requirements of scuba diving and features water-resistance to 300 metres, a unidirectional rotating bezel, a screw-down crown and case back, crown protection and a double security folding clasp with integrated diving extension.
After making an appearance at the opening of the new Longines Boutique in Marina Bay Sands, Longines Ambassador of Elegance Aaron Kwok attended the HydroConquest event. “As a watch lover, I really appreciate the bezel’s ceramic insert,” he said. “These watches have a sporty silhouette and an elegant style, making them suitable for daily wear and appropriate for all occasions.”
Besides the current collection with an aluminum insert on the bezel, the new HydroConquest models’ ceramic insert is available in several colors to adorn the wrists of all water sports enthusiasts. These models come in blue, black or grey, with a dial that matches the bezel’s ceramic insert and rubber strap, while the metal version combines polished and brushed steel for a truly impressive finish. Available in two sizes (41 mm and 43 mm), these HydroConquest timepieces offer the choice of three hands and a calendar or a chronograph.
