I've been getting into microbrands and getting lesser known watches with good movements like the Miyota 9015. Anyone have some good suggestions on integrated bracelet alternatives?
Well, there's also Horage Autark, with integrated bracelet, titanium case, inhouse movement (seriously, they produced the movement almost before they produce watches), and big date complication. It's also about 4 times price of PRX...
I would say that there are relatively few true microbrands with integrated bracelets. That simply means you can't replace the bracelets (microbrands would be too small to provide choices). Also, since their production is not inhouse, getting such custom design is hard.
The Autodromo group B could be a candidate. I'm not sure if it's a true integrated bracelet watch since the bracelet can be removed and replaced with a standard strap, but it has the look. The movement is a 9-series Miyota.

The best micro alternative with integrated bracelet is probably the Christopher Ward Twelve

Besides the Christopher Ward Twelve, I recommend the Yema Urban Traveller. https://en.yema.com/collections/urban-traveller/products/yema-urban-traveller-ywtr23-ems
YouTube reviews from Watchfinder and Teddy B re integrated sports watches worth checking out:

Maybe not quite the movements you want but here's some:
Arken Instrumentum used or the still available new model.
Seals Watch Co. (Don't own so no wrist pics)
Seiko 5 integrated.
Casio Oceanus S100
The Twelve. 👍
Lorier Astra (whenever they get stocked)
