The short answer

The closest alternative to the CIGA Design EDGE is the Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto ($475) — skeleton_dial and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Casio AE-1300WH at $40 (vs $299 for the EDGE) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Duckworth Prestex Z Hunter by CIGA Design is the standout microbrand take — rectangular case and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Tissot PRX UFO Robot Grendizer 50th Anniversary ($1,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
