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 Orient Bambino Version 6 at $285 (vs $535 for the Semi Skeleton) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Orient Star Semi Skeleton is the standout microbrand take — same family (Semi Skeleton) and Open-heart / skeleton. Stepping up, the IWC Schaffhausen Iw3583xx Portugieser Automatic ($7,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
