FAQs

What type of movement powers this watch?

This Longines Conquest Classic is powered by the L152 calibre quartz movement, known for its precision and reliability.

What is the water resistance of this watch?

The watch has a water resistance of 5 bar (50 meters), making it suitable for everyday splashes and light rain, but not for swimming or diving.

How do I clean the stainless steel bracelet?

Clean the stainless steel bracelet with a soft, dry cloth. For a more thorough clean, use a slightly damp cloth and dry it immediately afterwards. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

No, the 5 bar water resistance is not sufficient for swimming or diving. It is designed for protection against accidental splashes.

How often does the battery need to be replaced?

The battery in a quartz watch typically needs replacement every 2 to 5 years, depending on usage and battery type. It's best to have this done by a professional watchmaker.

What are the dimensions of the watch case?

The watch case has a diameter of 29.50mm (often referred to as 28mm in collection names for simplicity).

Is this watch suitable for formal occasions?

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time

The battery may be depleted. A quartz watch battery typically lasts 2-5 years and needs professional replacement. Consult an authorized Longines dealer or watchmaker.

Date is not changing correctly

Ensure you are setting the date according to the instructions for your specific model. Avoid changing the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. If the issue persists, seek professional service.

Bracelet is uncomfortable or loose

The bracelet may need resizing. Visit an authorized Longines dealer or a qualified watch repair shop for professional adjustment.

Crown is difficult to operate

Ensure the crown is fully pushed in or pulled out as required. If it feels stiff or jammed, do not force it. Seek professional servicing to avoid damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This watch features a quartz movement and comes ready to wear. To set the time, gently pull the crown outwards to the first or second position (depending on the specific crown function) and turn to adjust the hands and date. Push the crown back in fully to resume normal operation.

Compatibility: As a standalone timepiece, it is compatible with all personal styles and wardrobes. Ensure the stainless steel bracelet is properly sized for your wrist. Professional resizing can be done at a jeweler.

Care:

Cleaning: Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Water Resistance: While rated for 5 bar (50 meters), avoid prolonged submersion. Always ensure the crown is pushed in fully before exposing the watch to any moisture. Have the water resistance tested periodically, especially if the watch is older.
Strap/Bracelet: Periodically check the bracelet for any loose links or damage. Clean the bracelet thoroughly to remove any dirt or grime.
