Some more pictures

 

New pickup? Dial is top notch. Enjoy

 

The case is a bit too polished for my taste, but the dial is gorgeous! Congrats!

 

Wonderful watch Anders,.

 

Thank's
But this one has never been polished, I'm quite sure neither of me nor previous owners. It was completely untouched except that service had been done when I bought it for several years ago

 

My mistake! The lugs looks quite rounded, but that may be the factory specs.

Lovely watch!

 

Thanks
No problem, it is not always so easy to determine on pictures

 

A whole lot of snazz you got there! Love those case backs!

 

Interesting to compare with this example: https://omegaforums.net/threads/longines-conquest-9026-from-1964.72788/

 

That is how I thought the lugs on a Conquest are supposed to look like: sharp and with clear facets. But since I am no Longines expert, I wouldn’t stand firm on my initial statement

It may just be OP’s pictures that make it look rounder and smoother than it is IRL.

 

Thanks for sharing, quite a beauty.

Question on the lume on the dial - I noticed the hands have either a black inlay or darkened radium. The dial has empty lume plots. I don’t see signs of dial cleaning.. so this was an original option from the factory?

 

It's just a shadow that is deceived. Attach another image that clarifies that it should have sharp edges.

If you look closely at all the pictures, you will not see any difference in the one you are referring to

 

Yes!
This is what the hands look like after 60 years.

 

The hands are radium then? Have you tested by chance?

 

Good that you asked about this. I have never checked this as the watch is not used. I have now checked if there was any light from the hands but no reaction at all. The radium is probably too old to give any shine, it has been 60 years now since it was manufactured so that is probably the explanation
