Stepping up in Hugo Boss's range
The #COSY line is Hugo Boss's attempt at something closer to a bracelet than a tool — a rectangular Tank-proportion case where the band and the case read as a single piece of jewellery rather than a watch with a strap attached. At 21mm wide the proportions suit a narrow wrist precisely, and the alternating silver and yellow gold IP centre links carry the two-tone logic from case to bracelet without a visible break. The green sunray dial is the decision that distinguishes this from the silver and white versions in the same collection. Against gold-tone hands and applied baton indices it leans warmer than the case metal alone would suggest, and at 7.5mm thick it sits flat enough to disappear under a sleeve when that is what you need.

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 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.
