Conquest V.H.P.: a new achievement with quartz
With the Conquest V.H.P. (Very High Precision) watch, Longines is marking a return to the expert technology the brand originally pioneered: quartz-based watchmaking. Quartz timekeeping was invented in the 1950s, with quartz wristwatches available from 1969. Innovation is ongoing today: this line combines high precision with a movement developed exclusively for the brand, giving the wearer advanced technology and a sporty look.
