The short answer

The closest alternative to the Vaer Ameriquartz 36mm is the Hamilton Jazzmaster Thinline Small Second Quartz ($745) — common cross-shop and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Timex Easy Reader 35mm Leather Strap Watch at $75 (vs $299 for the Ameriquartz 36mm) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Praesidus DD-45 is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Sector dial. Stepping up, the Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch ($650) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
