Up for sale from my private collection is this nice Longines Conquest.

at a glance
Conquest ref. 9022
- Serial no. 1166xxx dates back to 1960
- Cal. 290, very clean

the dial
The original dial of this Conquest is in excellent condition without signs of age, I dare to say mint. Very nice "sunburst effect" hard to capture on the pictures. Original lume on dial and hands. All scratches are on the plexi

the case
The yellow gold capped case is in very good condition with sharp lugs without any dings or dents. Unpolished all edges and chamfers still present. Only superficial scratches.
The caseback shows some slight scratching around two notches. The "fish in kelp" still holds most of it's enamel

the movement
Very clean Longines in-house caliber ref 290 which barely sows any tool or service marks. The watch winds and sets very smooth and the movement is running strong. There is no known service history

the strap
The Longines comes on a very special new sea wolf strap with original vintage Longines buckle.

Fantastic example!

 

You know when you stare at something soooo much?

 

Just keep staring!

 

Hahahaha

 

Staring usually leads to Paypalling.

 

Ain't that the truth.

 

That's how it goes. Watch is SOLD! Thanks to the buyer and for your comments guys!

 

Well, somebody got one of the best automatics of that generation, and a sweet original buckle to boot.

 

Thanks Dennis! I think the watch itself wasn't so shabby either, but IMHO the real highlight here is the the seawolf strap Really don't know why everybody wanted me to take it off

 

Naw! Someone paid for that scalloped crown lol

 

Hey did that Newbi add back his fs

 

Interestingly, I have a scalloped crown I bought that my watchmaker says doesn’t fit on my LCPR 9032-3. Anyone with a clue as to why that would be? Here’s my watch:

 

Needs another stem?

 

Thanks, yeah, I guess that's the most logical answer.

I'm not a watchmaker, but I suppose maybe the stem AND the crown are wrong on my 9032... I hope the stem ain't too hard to find, but first, I'd need to determine which stem to look for!
