Ready to hit the slopes? This timepiece brings alpine energy straight to your wrist
As the Official Partner of the International Ski Federation (FIS), Longines is celebrating the upcoming FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Saalbach, Austria (February 4 to 16), with a striking limited-edition chronograph.
Unveiled on October 25 at the FIS Race Talk in Sölden to kick off the ski season, the Conquest Chrono Ski Edition was showcased by Longines Ski Ambassadors Marco Odermatt and Mikaela Shiffrin, as seen above.
This 2,025-piece release pays homage to the Conquest collection, first trademarked by Longines in 1954. Known for its blend of elegance and sporting spirit, this latest edition elevates the legacy with modern design and cutting-edge technology.
At 42mm, the stainless-steel case pairs polished and satin finishes with a black ceramic tachymetric bezel, ideal for timing downhill runs. The anthracite dial, with its textured snailed finish, features sleek black sub-dials and Super-LumiNova-coated hands, ensuring visibility in any condition. Red accents add a dynamic pop.
The caseback stands out with an engraved skier emblem and inscriptions honouring the Saalbach 2025 Championships.
Inside, the exclusive L898.5 calibre powers the watch. Its silicon balance-spring offers magnetic resistance tenfold above standard, while the 59-hour power reserve ensures reliability even on your busiest days.
Buyers can personalise their timepiece with a stainless-steel bracelet or a sporty black rubber strap, both featuring secure folding clasps. Delivered in a premium black box, it’s a true collector’s piece.
For ski enthusiasts and watch collectors, this limited edition isn’t just a celebration of alpine sport—it’s wearable history. Better move fast: just like a championship skier, it won’t be sticking around in shops for long.
