The short answer

The closest alternative to the Seiko SQBR021 is the Casio EFV-160D ($120) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio MQ-24 at $30 (vs $88 for the SQBR021) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Wolbrook Outrider Professional Mecaquartz 38 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Casio EFK-110D ($300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
