The short answer

The closest alternative to the CIGA Design EDGE is the Invicta S1 Rally 49021 — skeleton_dial and Tonneau / barrel case. If price is the constraint, the Casio AE-1200WH at $40 (vs $399 for the EDGE) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Duckworth Prestex Z Hunter by CIGA Design is the standout microbrand take — rectangular case and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Bulova Gold-Tone Dial HNBR Rubber Series X² 97A195 ($2,995) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
