The short answer
The closest alternative to the Castle & Gazelle Zellij Blue is the Timex Waterbury Classic Sub-Second 39mm Leather Strap Watch ($189) — visually similar and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Scout 40mm Leather Strap Watch - TW4B34000 at $46 (vs $95 for the Zellij Blue) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Castle & Gazelle Shamsah / The Heart of Design is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Bulova Brown Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Sport 44B136 ($325) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
