The short answer

The closest alternative to the Timex Men's Dress 42mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch is the Timex Waterbury Classic 40mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch ($145) — classic dress and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio MRW-200H at $40 (vs $90 for the Men's Dress 42mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Dan Henry 1963 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Movado Heritage Calendoplan S Chronograph ($1,295) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
