The short answer

The closest alternative to the Caught Watches Pillarix is the Swatch Tirrike ($115) — art / handcrafted dial and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Freetid at $90 (vs $186 for the Pillarix) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the 5280 Watch Company Antero is the standout microbrand take — art / handcrafted dial and Visually similar. Stepping up, the NOMOS Glashütte Club automatic date Atlantic ($4,050) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
