The short answer

The closest alternative to the Cincinnati Watch Company Ice Blue is the Yema Urban Traveller ($1,090) — common cross-shop and Vintage revival. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Presage Style60's at $595 (vs $1,800 for the Ice Blue) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Cincinnati Watch Company Cincinnati's Favorite Hippo is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW210-1) and Vintage revival. Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGH281 ($6,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
