The short answer

The closest alternative to the Alexander Shorokhoff Happy Second is the Fortis Stratoliner S-41 ($5,450) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Damasko DC58 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Alexander Shorokhoff Happy Second Bordeaux is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (ETA 2894-2) and Same family (Happy). Stepping up, the Breitling Top Time B01 ($7,650) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
