Hugo Boss Grand Prix Mens Watch 44.5mm Blue
Ref. 1514226
Sits in Hugo Boss’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Hugo Boss watches we list, which start at £65.
Price range £65 to £379 across 127 Hugo Boss watches in stock.The Grand Prix name signals the intent clearly enough: this is a chronograph drawn from motorsport's visual vocabulary, with a tachymeter ring and three sub-dials giving the blue dial a properly busy, purposeful layout. Hugo Boss has aimed it squarely at the casual end of dress, where a watch needs to read as considered without requiring much thought from the wearer. At 44.5mm it sits large on the wrist but only 11.1mm thick, which means it passes under a cuff without the usual drama of a sports chronograph. The deep blue dial and mixed polished and brushed case surfaces do a reasonable amount of work together, shifting between silver and steel-grey depending on the light. The date sits between four and five o'clock rather than at three, which keeps it clear of the sub-dial cluster and is a tidier arrangement than the standard position.

Learn more about Hugo Boss
Hugo Boss was founded as a clothing manufacturer in Metzingen in 1924. The modern company is a global fashion house, and its watches are produced under licence by Movado Group.
The watch line reflects the clothing: German minimalism, sparse dials, brushed steel, and a general absence of decoration. Movements are quartz or bought-in automatic. These are not manufacture watches and are not presented as such.
Within the licensed-fashion category, the design discipline is better than most. The dials are legible, the proportions are usually sensible, and the styling holds up rather than dating quickly.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
