Still on the original Longines bracelet, this Conquest automatic may have spent a lot of its life in the box. Model reference 1501.
HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
From the serial number on the movement we can accurately date this watch to being made circa 1972. The movement design used in this watch was first launched in 1972, so it will not be older than this.
CONDITION
This is a good looking sports watch. With similar dimensions to a Rolex Datejust, this Longines provides excellent value for money. You are getting a premium brand, in good condition, with a high specifaction movement and original box and bracelet, for less than a bracelet in the Datejust. The movement is the 21 jewel calibre 506, which has micro adjustment on the balance for fine timekeeping. It also has semi quick set date at three on the dial. The case is all stainless steel, with a wide bezel and screw down solid case back. The dial has some very light patina at the edges. The brick bracelet is quite long and our sister website, SpareLinks.com, may have extra links if required. The bracelet has been cleaned in our ultrasonic bath. The watch is signed on the dial, case, movement, crown, and clasp.
This watch will be supplied with the original presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.

From 1st September 2021 we will be planting a tree for every watch we sell, working with the International Tree Foundation (Est 1922) to make this business positive on carbon. By buying anything pre owned you are effectively reusing what already exists, but this takes it further and makes us feel good.
