The short answer

The closest alternative to the Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton is the Tissot Chemin des Tourelles Skeleton ($1,100) — common cross-shop and Open-heart / skeleton. If price is the constraint, the Orient Bambino Open Heart at $315 (vs $1,999 for the Skyraider 40 Skeleton) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Zelos Artemis is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Swiss Skeletonised Marvin 700) and Dress. Stepping up, the Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Phantom Ceramic ($10,789) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
