The short answer
The closest alternative to the Citizen Garrison is the Citizen Mickey Astronaut ($319) — shared caliber (Citizen J810) and Everyday solar. If price is the constraint, the Timex Essex Avenue 44mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch - TW2Y28800 at $102 (vs $206 for the Garrison) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Nite Watches Alpha is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Same size. Stepping up, the Citizen Nighthawk ($431) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
