The short answer

The closest alternative to the BEHRENS Apolar Watch is the Christopher Ward C1 Bel Canto ($4,725) — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Hamilton Jazzmaster Regulator Cinema at $1,475 (vs $3,420 for the Apolar Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the JIANGHUN War Drum Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Hublot Big Bang Unico Magic ($23,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
