The short answer

The closest alternative to the Timex Waterbury Classic Sub-Second 39mm Leather Strap Watch is the Timex Waterbury Classic Sub-Second 39mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch ($219) — same family (Waterbury) and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio Enticer MTP-1302 at $67 (vs $189 for the Waterbury Classic Sub-Second 39mm Leather Strap Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vaer C1 Ceremony Quartz is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGP009 ($3,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
