Hugo Boss 1530175 Leap Black IP Bracelet Watch - W45275
Ref. 1530175
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 106 Hugo Boss watches in stock.The Leap is HUGO's entry into oversized sport-casual territory — a 45mm all-black ion-plated case worn as much for visual weight as for function. The three sub-dials give it a purposeful, layered look, and the contrast between grey baton markers and red hands does real work on a dark dial, keeping it readable without breaking the monochrome scheme. At 9mm thick it sits flatter than most watches dressed up with this much going on. The bracelet matches the case in both material and finish, so the whole thing reads as one piece rather than an assembly. The push-button deployant makes daily use easy enough that the 22mm link width, which is substantial, stops feeling heavy within a week of regular wear.

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?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
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 comparedWhat size strap does it take?
22mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
