Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
At 48mm across and approximately 12mm thick, this is a substantial watch with a presence to match. The polished stainless steel case carries a black unidirectional rotating bezel, framing a jet black dial arranged with chronograph sub-dials and luminous hands and markers for low-light legibility. Hardened mineral crystal sits over the dial. The Milanese mesh bracelet in silver-toned stainless steel has a 24mm lug width and fastens with a self-adjustable deployment clasp. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres. At around 143 grams, it sits with noticeable weight on the wrist.

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?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
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?
24mm. 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.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
