I think Manufactum is the most similar thing out there, yet still far from perfect. They focus too much on old looks vs quality.

Manufactum (if you talk about the German company or division) sells mainly feel good stuff. I bought some and I wouldn't classify it as high quality items. They generally have a very good finish, that's it. I certainly wouldn't shop there for high quality.

Thanks, Manufactum looks great. As you say though, everything looks plenty solid and reliable, but as far as I can see they don't state any sort of actual warranty/guarantee.
