The short answer

The closest alternative to the Tissot T-Complication Squelette is the Hamilton Jazzmaster Skeleton Auto ($1,475) — common cross-shop and skeleton_dial. If price is the constraint, the Bulova Black Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Maquina 98A340 at $995 (vs $2,295 for the T-Complication Squelette) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Zelos Skyraider 2 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and skeleton_dial. Stepping up, the Garrick S3 Deadbeat Seconds - Power Reserve ($50,800) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
