The short answer
The closest alternative to the San Martin Top Hat 36mm Crystal Explore Watch SN021-GB1 is the Stowa Partitio Ice Blue — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Seiko 5 SNKK27K1 at $133 (vs $325 for the Top Hat 36mm Crystal Explore Watch SN021-GB1) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vero Watch Company Century Series is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Glycine Unisex Combat Sub Sport 36mm Automatic Watch GL0543 ($1,530) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
