Stepping up in the same colour and case shape

Price range £65 to £399 across 132 Hugo Boss watches in stock.

The #Fast collection takes its cues from motorsport — the tachymeter bezel, checkerboard dial detailing, and orange second hand are direct borrowings from the timing instruments that live on racing dashboards rather than dressing-table trays. At 44mm the case makes no attempt to be subtle, and the contrast stitching on the perforated rally strap reinforces the point. The orange second hand sweeps across a navy dial that is busy by design, with day and date sub-dials sitting at twelve and six respectively — a layout that echoes analogue chronographs without the mechanical complexity of one.

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
