The short answer

The closest alternative to the Bulova CURV Men's Chronograph/Classic Watch is the Bulova Green Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet CURV 96A297 ($2,050) — shared caliber (NR20) and Same family (Curv). If price is the constraint, the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II at $450 (vs $1,050 for the CURV Men's Chronograph/Classic Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Astor + Banks Chrono is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Seiko Astron GPS Solar 2025 Limited Edition ($2,900) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
