Hugo Boss Grand Prix Chronograph 44.5mm Mens Watch Blue Dial
Ref. 1514344
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 £399 across 132 Hugo Boss watches in stock.The Grand Prix line takes its design cues from motorsport instrumentation — the tachymeter bezel, the three recessed subdials, the deep blue dial all read as a dashboard translated onto the wrist. It is unambiguous about what it is trying to be. At 44.5mm and 156 grams, this sits firmly on the wrist rather than perching on it, and the alternating brushed and polished surfaces on the five-link bracelet earn that weight visually. The SII quartz movement inside is the same manufacturer that supplies the chronograph modules found in a good deal of serious Japanese watchmaking — reliable, accurate, and asking almost nothing of the owner in return.

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.
Cheapest place to buy
Goldsmiths is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
