Swiss watchmakerLongineshas revealed a new version of its HydroConquest diving watch, featuring a GMT dial for the first time.
Offered in four different colourways and available to buy now, thewatchmarks the first time Longines has fitted a GMT movement to any model from the HydroConquest collection, ever since it was introduced back in 2007.
A GMT movement adds a second hour hand and a 24-hour scale to the dial of a watch. That way, it can be used to display the time of whatever time zone the wearer is currently in, as well as the time at GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). Travelling at half the speed of the regular hour hand, the GMT indicator points at a 24-hour scale around the outer edge of the dial.

The four options include the traditional dive watch colourways of blue and black, plus a pair that offer more of a vintage vibe. These both have gold markings on the dial and bezel, and are available in green or brown, and are available with a NATO-style fabric strap in the same two colour options.
The blue model on a stainless steel strap and the black option on a matching rubber strap is priced at £2,550, while the green and brown models on fabric straps are £2,450.
