The short answer

The closest alternative to the Swatch Golden Tac is the Swatch Die Glocke ($90) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Casio MQ-24 at $30 (vs $80 for the Golden Tac) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Lilienthal Berlin Nuvora – Mono Silver is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz ($675) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
