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 Timex END. x Timex 1981 Reissue Inspired 35mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch at $199 (vs $475 for the Metric) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Maen Manhattan 37 Worn & Wound Edition is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Tonneau / barrel case. Stepping up, the Zenith Chronomaster Revival Liberty Ii ($10,600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
