Nice one Grant, classy! Neat collection.
A few years back I was into watches in a big way, even learning to do basic none complication watch servicing and repair but it started to get out of hand, too many watches and too much cash outlay! I loved working on vintage Longines watches, they made some of the best watches available in their day and are a joy. This Conquest I bought off eBay, it was in a right state but I managed to fully refurbish it and get it back into running order...still one of my favourites today.

I take it the red thing is the hrs marker, or am I way off.
Been cataloguing my few watches on an American watch site. Seems all they do serial no wise.
Although Seth Thomas info is hard to come by in sure I have the date for this one somewhere.
Although it has a badly repaired dial it's still fairly rare, and does work although mainspring is stiff. It was replaced but I thi g the guy made a cock of it. Lol
It's still a nice watch and feels good in the handhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ece804016a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6567b6ba5b.jpg
