The short answer

The closest alternative to the Inklings GREY TOWN 1 is the RGM Watches Model 222-RR ($8,950) — looks nearly identical and Sector dial. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Body Soul Leather at $200 (vs $480 for the GREY TOWN 1) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the 1963 Watches Black Edition 1963 Seagull Movement is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seagull ST19 (family)) and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Christopher Ward C65 Sandhurst Series 2 ($1,375) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
