The short answer

The closest alternative to the Melbourne Watch Company Carlton is the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II ($450) — racing chrono and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Casio EFV-650D at $120 (vs $294 for the Carlton) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Briston Streamliner Urban - Chrono - Acier is the standout microbrand take — cushion case and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Mido Multifort TV Big Date ($1,490) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
