The short answer

The closest alternative to the Brew Metric is the Tissot PRX ($850) — common cross-shop and Tonneau / barrel case. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Hairyblue Mary at $95 (vs $475 for the Metric) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Specht & Sohne Specht & Söhne SP2650Q Quartz is the standout microbrand take — tonneau / barrel case and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Zenith Chronomaster Revival Liberty Ii ($10,600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
