The short answer

The closest alternative to the Bulova Surveyor is the Tissot Gentleman ($495) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio Edifice EFR-S108D covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BERNY BERNY-Men Quartz Dress Watch-2676M is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Sunburst dial. Stepping up, the Tissot Gentleman ($950) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
