The short answer

The closest alternative to the Sternglas Hamburg is the Tissot Ballade ($400) — classic dress and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Greetings From Las Vegas at $95 (vs $323 for the Hamburg) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Sternglas Hamburg Chrono is the standout microbrand take — same family (Hamburg) and Bauhaus minimalist. Stepping up, the NOMOS Glashütte Minimatik 39 date blue ($3,730) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
