Stepping up in Hugo Boss's range
The #DRIFT collection sits at the fashion end of what Hugo Boss makes — bold, deliberate and entirely committed to a single idea. Here that idea is full monochrome gold: the PVD case, the integrated multi-link bracelet and the dial are all the same tone, with no contrast breaking the surface. At 43mm across and only 10.6mm deep, it wears flatter than you might expect for that footprint, and at 128 grams the bracelet has enough substance to feel considered rather than hollow. The deployant clasp adjusts via standard push-pins on the links, which keeps the fit precise.

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