The short answer
The closest alternative to the F.P.Journe Élégante 40 mm is the Bulova White Dial Leather Strap I've Got You Under My Skin 96A337 ($575) — tonneau / barrel case and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Noah x Timex Oval Moon Phase at $228 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the F.P.Journe Élégante 48 mm is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Caliber 1210) and Same family (Élégante).
