The short answer

The closest alternative to the Velini Ref. 171-V is the Yema Radiance ($279) — rectangular case and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio AQ-230 at $60 (vs $260 for the Ref. 171-V) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Velini Crosshair is the standout microbrand take — rectangular case and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Hamilton American Classic Boulton Small Second Quartz M ($795) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
