The short answer

The closest alternative to the Sheffield QL1 is the Swatch Big Bold SwatchPAY ($105) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. From the independents, the Out of Order Firefly is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Casio GM-2100 ($220) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
