The short answer

The closest alternative to the Edward Christopher The Ripple — Imperial Violet Edition is the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Extra-Thin (RD#3) "50ᵀᴴ Anniversary" 37mm — integrated bracelet sport and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto Date at $395 (vs $1,130 for the The Ripple — Imperial Violet Edition) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Atelier Wen Millésime 2024 — Perception 睦 (Mù) is the standout microbrand take — integrated bracelet sport and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Sartory Billard SB04 ($2,900) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
