The short answer

The closest alternative to the Bulova Black Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Series X 98B456 is the Citizen Promaster Skyhawk U830 ($596) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Citizen Nighthawk at $431 (vs $950 for the Black Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Series X 98B456) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vaer DS2 Meridian Quartz is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Bulova Black Dial EPDM Rubber Strap Series X 98B358 ($4,750) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
