The short answer

The closest alternative to the BERNY BERNY-Men Automatic Classic Watch-AM079VM is the Swatch Body Soul Leather ($200) — skeleton_dial and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio MQ-24 at $30 (vs $147 for the BERNY-Men Automatic Classic Watch-AM079VM) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BERNY BERNY-Men Automatic Classic Watch-AM179M is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH38) and Classic dress. Stepping up, the Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto ($475) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
