The short answer

The closest alternative to the CWC GS Sapphire Watch is the Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz ($675) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio MQ-24 at $30 (vs $333 for the GS Sapphire Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the CWC GS Sapphire Subhunter Watch is the standout microbrand take — same family (GS Sapphire) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Quartz ($1,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
