The short answer
The closest alternative to the Orient Star Semi Skeleton is the Orient Bambino Open Heart ($315) — open-heart / skeleton and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Weekender New England Chronograph 40mm Leather Strap Watch at $189 (vs $380 for the Semi Skeleton) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Orient Star Semi Skeleton is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Orient F6R42) and Same family (Semi Skeleton). Stepping up, the Tissot Chemin des Tourelles Skeleton ($1,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
