Conquest Chrono Ski Edition

To mark the 48^th FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Saalbach / Salzburgerland in Austria, Longines is launching the new CONQUEST CHRONO SKI EDITION. Limited to 2025 pieces, this chronograph combines a robust build and sporty elegance, highlighting the close links between Longines and alpine skiing that go back over a century.

As Official Partner of the International Ski Federation (FIS), Longines is associated with the world's greatest alpine skiing events, including the upcoming FIS Alpine World Ski Championships, which will take place from 4 to 16 February 2025 in Saalbach / Salzburgerland, Austria. To celebrate this important biennial sporting event, the winged‑hourglass brand is unveiling a 2 025‑piece limited edition of its famous Conquest chronograph.

Being the first line of Longines watches to be granted trademark protection by the Swiss Federal Intellectual Property Office in 1954, the Conquest holds a special place in Longines’ history. Sporty yet elegant, this collection embodies the spirit of alpine skiing and its athletes.

Sporty in every detail
A resolutely sporty watch, the Conquest Chrono Ski Edition features a 42 mm stainless steel case with alternating polished and satin-finished surfaces. With its black ceramic insert and tachymetric bezel, this chronograph is water-resistant up to 10 bar (100 m). Topped by a sapphire crystal with multi‑layer anti-reflective treatment on both sides, it features an anthracite dial contrasting with a black, small seconds subdial at 3 o'clock and black counters at 6 and 9 o'clock. The dial has a snailed external finish, an emblematic design feature of the collection.

Like the applied hour-markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock, the polished rhodium‑plated hour and minute hands are coated with Super-LumiNova®. For optimum legibility, the tip of the central chronograph seconds hand and the hands of the 12-hour and 30-minute counters are tinted the same red as the tachymetric scale on the ceramic bezel.

The emblem of the 48^th FIS World Championships 2025, a skier in action, is engraved in the centre of the watch's screw-down, angled case back. The case back also features the inscriptions “SAALBACH 2025-FIS ALPINE WORLD SKI CHAMPIONSHIPS” and “LIMITED EDITION - ONE OF 2025” engraved around its edge.

When precision meets performance
The Conquest Chrono Ski Edition is powered by the exclusive Longines L898.5 calibre. Equipped with a silicon balance‑spring and innovative components, it provides magnetic resistance ten times greater than the ISO 764 reference standard. The self-winding mechanical movement offers a power reserve of up to 59 hours.

This limited edition chronograph can be fitted with either a stainless steel bracelet with a triple‑security folding clasp or a black rubber strap featuring a double‑security folding clasp with a micro-adjustment system. The Conquest Chrono Ski Edition is presented in a special black box.

A new lucky charm for Marco Odermatt and Mikaela Shiffrin
The Conquest Chrono Ski Edition was launched at the FIS Race Talk in Sölden in 25 October to mark the start of the new ski season. Longines Ski Ambassadors Marco Odermatt and Mikaela Shiffrin were there to discover and try the latest model.
