Reference 9028 occupies a significant place within the history of the Longines Conquest line as an uncommon and technically distinctive model combining an automatic movement with a centre-mounted power-reserve display and date aperture at 12 o’clock. Its display system, based on two rotating discs arranged concentrically at the centre of the dial, constitutes an inventive and visually striking solution to the indication of remaining autonomy. As such, the reference is of particular interest not only to collectors of Longines wristwatches, but also to those concerned with mid-century experimentation in dial architecture and functional display design.
