The brief

This eBay Find highlights a scarce vintage Longines Conquest from the late 1950s, presented in a yellow gold capped case with a steel back. The watch features a two-tone gold dial with applied gold markers and dauphine hands, though the dial shows some patina and radium burn from the lume. The crystal requires replacement, but the overall condition, particularly the enamel Longines fish logo caseback medallion, is noted as uncommon and excellent.
