The short answer

The closest alternative to the dwiss R2 is the Otsuka Lotec 5号改 — automatic and Same size. If price is the constraint, the Seiko 5 Sports Field Series with Green Dial #HDB008 at $385 (vs $1,197 for the R2) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Bamford of London GMT+1 is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the Massena LAB Albishorn x Massena LAB Maxigraph ($5,495) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
