18 watches that match on case size, movement family, and price band. Sorted by how close the match is.
The closest alternative to the Junghans Meister MEGA Solar is the Junghans Meister fein Chronoscope MEGA Solar ($1,960) — same family (Meister) and Bauhaus minimalist. If price is the constraint, the Mondaine essence, 41 mm, black at $320 (vs $1,480 for the Meister MEGA Solar) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Sternglas Naos Solar is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Bauhaus minimalist. Stepping up, the NOMOS Glashütte Metro neomatik 39 silvercut ($4,850) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
Independent makers covering the same brief — usually with something the mainstream brands don't.
