The short answer

The closest alternative to the AV86 1988 Moonphase is the Oris Artelier Complication ($3,150) — classic dress and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Classic Moonphase 40mm Automatic Watch GL0114 at $1,650 (vs $3,349 for the 1988 Moonphase) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Furlan Marri Cornes De Vache is the standout microbrand take — vintage revival and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Blancpain Villeret Quantième Complet ($37,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
