To celebrate the Year of the Snake in 2025, LONGINES has launched a special edition of its CONQUEST HERITAGE model. The renowned Chinese artist Wu Jian’an was invited to create a special design, which features a mystical snake with a Lingzhi mushroom in its mouth, intricately engraved on the case back. Limited to 2,025 pieces, the CONQUEST HERITAGE YEAR OF THE SNAKE features a 40 mm stainless steel case with a screwed-down angled case back on which the exclusive snake emblem, a symbol of good fortune, is engraved. The vibrant domed gradient red dial with sunray finish is adorned with gilt hands and hour markers, creating a sparkling effect that perfectly matches the celebratory and gathering moments of the Lunar New Year. The watch is powered by the exclusive LONGINES L888.5 calibre, equipped with a silicon balance-spring and innovative components that guarantee magnetic resistance ten times greater than the ISO 764 benchmark standard.
To add a touch of sophistication and elegance to the Year of the Snake, this limited edition watch comes with a black leather strap.
