The short answer
The closest alternative to the Minus-8 Anza is the Timex Expedition Beagle Scout (Peanuts) ($105) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Easy Reader 38mm Leather Strap Watch at $77 (vs $198 for the Anza) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the TRIWA Krut Norrsken is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Junghans max bill Quarz ($1,030) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
