Let me know if you got questions happy to answ. Despite the hydroconquest collection being part of the longines line up for the better part of a decade they fail to grasp the imagination as much as their heritage inspired brothers. It seems an age ago when ceramic bezels were the rarity rather than the norm. The inclusion of ceramic bezels is a welcome update from aluminum and stainless steel.
The strap is integrated into the case ensuring a snug fit.
