Love the watch (have one too)...but hate the O.E.M. strap.
don't like the look of it, or the strap's quality???

A "project" piece - gamble?

Movement looks reasonably good and is running on the button, dial I suspect (hope) will clean up plus a new crystal fitted and maybe all will turn out well!

The quality (or lack thereof). It lacks suppleness. I put mine on a beautiful Hadley-Roma strap which beats it by a mile in that respect. Unfortunately the 19mm size only comes in black.

Took a bit of a gamble on this one. It's way too small for me to wear !

Looks like it would fit a Scotsman just fine😉

Nice snag! I can't believe that watch lasted as long as it did. 46 hours is about 40 hours longer than I expected it to be available.

Just glad everyone else was a little slower than I. It was pretty cool getting a watch produced the year I was born.
And a BIG THANKS to all the forum members who have helped me spend my retirement money on watches these last 2 months. 😀

Whenever I get melancholy about a watch I've sold, I go look at the watch I bought using the funds from that sale. Cures the blues nearly every time.

Dennis, all I have to do is look at my most recent acquisition and everything is right as rain!😉

Forgot what may turn out to be the most important part of the Longines Conquest purchase - a box 😀
