The short answer

The closest alternative to the Eoniq 38.5mm Custom ALSTER - AS06 is the Swatch Body Soul Leather ($200) — skeleton_dial and Looks nearly identical.

From the independents, the Eoniq 35mm Custom ALSTER (2017) - AS01 is the standout microbrand take — same family (ALSTER S) and skeleton_dial. Stepping up, the Bulova Black Dial Leather Bracelet Surveyor 96A310 ($925) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
