The short answer

The closest alternative to the Walter Gropius Forum - Hommage à Frank Stella is the Swatch The Joe Tilson Venetian Watch ($170) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Black White the Swatch Art Peace Hotel at $90 (vs $269 for the Forum - Hommage à Frank Stella) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Walter Gropius Forum - Crossing Mondrian is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (GL32) and Same family (Forum). Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz ($675) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
