The short answer

The closest alternative to the Cadola Giulia Meca Quartz is the Casio EFR-574DE ($220) — visually similar and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Casio MRW-200H at $40 (vs $139 for the Giulia Meca Quartz) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Junghans Spektrum Mega Solar ($1,410) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
