The short answer

The closest alternative to the Frederique Constant Highlife Automatic Cosc is the Frederique Constant Highlife Automatic ($2,495) — shared caliber (Frederique Constant FC-303) and Same family (Highlife). If price is the constraint, the Tissot Le Locle 20th Anniversary at $875 (vs $1,995 for the Highlife Automatic Cosc) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Thorn Watchdives WD0006 38mm VH31 Men Watch is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the Bremont Altitude 39 Date ($4,250) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
