The short answer

The closest alternative to the Apiar Carbon1.0 is the Longines CONQUEST ($2,400) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Tissot Le Locle at $795 (vs $2,508 for the Carbon1.0) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Bravur Watches Scandinavia is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the Ming 29.01 Worldtimer ($19,500) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
