The short answer
The closest alternative to the Bertucci A-2S Ballista is the Timex Expedition Field Post Solar 36mm Recycled Fabric Strap Watch ($209) — common cross-shop and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Scout 40mm Leather Strap Watch at $95 (vs $225 for the A-2S Ballista) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Bertucci A-2S Field is the standout microbrand take — same family (A-2S) and Industrial tool. Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Quartz ($1,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
