The short answer
The closest alternative to the Citizen ATTESA is the Seiko Astron GPS Solar 2025 Limited Edition ($2,900) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Orient Stretto Day & Night at $420 (vs $1,195 for the ATTESA) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Furlan Marri Mechaquartz is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Seiko Astron ($2,500) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
