Stepping up in the same colour and case shape

Price range £65 to £379 across 106 Hugo Boss watches in stock.

The #FRESH collection positions itself at the crossroads of sport and office wear — dive-watch proportions translated into something intended to hold its own past the weekend. The blue bezel and dark dial carry the visual grammar of a tool watch without the rated depth to back it up; this is the aesthetic borrowed for daily commuting rather than any serious water use. At 44mm and somewhere between 12 and 13mm thick, it sits firmly on the wrist without disappearing under a cuff, and the mesh bracelet's sliding clasp means fit is a matter of sliding rather than punching holes — useful for anyone whose wrists vary through the day. The three sub-dials breaking up the blue face give it a purposeful, busy look that reads well at a glance; day, date and 24-hour display in a layout that earns its width.

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 explained

Will 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 compared

Does 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 compared

What 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.
