Blue and gold is one of the most striking combinations a watch can wear, and the Longines HydroConquest L3.769.3.96.7 uses it well. A blue sandblasted dial sits within a 42mm steel case with yellow PVD-coated details, and a matching two-tone bracelet carries the look all the way around the wrist.

Despite the dressy color scheme, this is a HydroConquest through and through. It is water resistant to 300 meters, with a screw-in crown, screw-down caseback and unidirectional bezel. The sapphire crystal has anti-reflective coating on both sides, and Super-LumiNova on the hands and indexes glows in the dark. A Swiss quartz movement with date keeps maintenance minimal. Yellow PVD on steel gives the gold tone without the weight and cost of precious metal.

The matte sandblasted dial keeps the blue soft and deep rather than glossy, which balances the shine of the gold-tone accents. It is a natural choice for a holiday, a celebration, or anyone who enjoys a little color.
