·9,5mio serial so dated to 1953/54? No lume was surprising to me at first.
Just picked up this ref. 9000-1

··Thanks, mystery donor!Wow, gorgeous example.
I have seen others without lume. Here is one from the forum: https://omegaforums.net/threads/post-your-longineseses.472/page-38#post-918175
P.S. Maybe the invoice date is 1954 or 1955. See here: https://omegaforums.net/threads/the-first-longines-conquest.127629/

··Thanks, mystery donor!Lovely buckle. It seems similar to the one in this advert from 1956.

It sure has an early serial, 9.527k if I’m not mistaken. I will send Longines an email for some info 😀

·Very nice! And original buckle too - they’re harder to find than the watches themselves! I had a nice two tone one of these before (steel case, gold applied indices and hands) lovely example of 50s watch design. Enjoy!

·I have a non-luminous 9000 ref. I’ve also noticed some of the ads from the time featured non luminous variants - they look a little cleaner IMO.

Thanks this version is less common than with gold tone hardware. I believe the indices are white gold.
This blue combo I like the most!

·Slight variation here, a lumed 9011 All-Guard. Previously owned by Ruth Bader Linsberg. 😉

·Wow! Stunning early Conquest in the most desirable configuration IMHO, congrats!
The bor bracelet fits nicely, but I prefer the strap with the period correct original buckle 🥰
