The short answer

The closest alternative to the Oblvlo EM Steel is the Tissot PRX ($450) — tonneau / barrel case and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Oraspay at $105 (vs $262 for the EM Steel) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Oblvlo GM Skeleton is the standout microbrand take — tonneau / barrel case and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Tissot PRX ($2,150) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
