Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Ark sits in Hugo Boss's HUGO line, which runs younger and more graphic than the mainline — less boardroom, more considered casualwear. The brief here is legibility through reduction: the black dial clears away anything decorative, and the silver hands do the reading work without competition, until the red seconds hand cuts across and gives the whole thing a edge it would otherwise lack. At 40mm with a case only 8.9mm deep, it wears closer to the wrist than most watches at this diameter, which suits a leather strap better than a thick case would. The contrast between the black dial and black strap keeps the case as the focal point rather than letting the watch read as one dark block from the wrist up.

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.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's, though at 40mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
