Stepping up in the same dial colour
Drawn from Hugo Boss's #GRAIL SPORT line, this watch takes its visual language from motorsport — angular case geometry, a black dial broken up by red accents across three sub-dials, and a silicone strap broad enough to feel purposeful on the wrist. The result reads as deliberate rather than generic sports-casual. At 44mm it sits large but not unusually so for the category, and 11mm of thickness means it clears a cuff without drama. The three-eye layout — day, date, and 24-hour display — gives the dial density that rewards a glance without requiring one to study it.

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