The short answer

The closest alternative to the Boldr Safari is the Seiko Alpinist ($750) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Am51 at $170 (vs $449 for the Safari) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Boldr Ranger is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (NH38) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Seiko 62MAS ($1,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
