The short answer

The closest alternative to the Frederique Constant Classics Index Small Seconds Automatic is the Hamilton Jazzmaster Performer Automatic ($1,245) — common cross-shop and Classic dress. If price is the constraint, the Tissot Classic Dream at $550 (vs $1,295 for the Classics Index Small Seconds Automatic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Monta Noble is the standout microbrand take — classic dress and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Longines CONQUEST HERITAGE ($3,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
