The short answer

The closest alternative to the Oblvlo VM Skeleton is the Orient Bambino Open Heart ($315) — open-heart / skeleton and Skeleton dial. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Oraspay at $105 (vs $216 for the VM Skeleton) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Spinnaker Croft 42 Skeleton is the standout microbrand take — open-heart / skeleton and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Norqain Independence Skeleton 42mm Grey Gold ($5,639) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
