- Is the HydroConquest a real dive watch?
- Yes. It is rated to 300 m, has a screw-down crown and a unidirectional dive bezel, so it is suitable for recreational diving.
- How does it compare with a Tudor Black Bay?
- The Tudor has a better bracelet, movement and finishing, but the Longines offers similar dive capability and Swiss heritage for far less. The HydroConquest is the value pick.
- Will the 41 mm case fit a small wrist?
- It wears large because of its thickness. Wrists under about 6.5 inches may find it top-heavy; try it on if you can.
- Does it have a sapphire crystal?
- Yes, the crystal is sapphire, which resists scratches far better than mineral glass.
- Can I swim and shower with it?
- Yes. With 300 m rating and a screw-down crown, swimming and showering are fine. Rinse it with fresh water after saltwater use.
- Is the movement automatic?
- Yes, it uses a Longines automatic caliber. It winds from wrist motion and has a power reserve of roughly two days.
- Where is the Longines HydroConquest Automatic Blue Dial Stainless Steel Diving Watch cheapest?
- At Reeds, for $2,000.00, as of our latest check.
