Conquest Classic 29.5mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 29.5 mm case suggests

Longines Conquest Classic 29.5mm measures 37.5 mm lug-to-lug on a 29.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.27 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 95% of the 7,413 watches in this database and shorter than 73% of the 495 Longines watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 42 mm (1.65 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 50 mm (1.97 in) it starts to look compact. Below 37.5 mm (1.48 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 8.7 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 92% of the watches with a listed thickness.
