The short answer

The closest alternative to the Alexander Shorokhoff Happy Second is the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER Mechanical Chronograph ($2,500) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto at $475 (vs $2,772 for the Happy Second) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Alexander Shorokhoff Happy Second Bordeaux is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (ETA 2894) and Same family (Happy).
