The short answer
The closest alternative to the Swatch Isikhathi is the Swatch By Coco Ho ($120) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Casio MQ-24 at $30 (vs $80 for the Isikhathi) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Slow Watches Slow Round-S is the standout microbrand take — visually similar and Quartz. Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz ($675) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
