The short answer
The closest alternative to the Monterey Watch Co. HIGHBALL is the Stowa Marine Original arabic — manual and Same size. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Generation at $170 (vs $349 for the HIGHBALL) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Serket Watch Co Pilot Commander is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seagull ST3600) and Manual. Stepping up, the RGM Watches PS-801-BB "Baseball in Enamel" ($2,950) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
