The short answer
The closest alternative to the HOFFMAN Racing 40 Mechanical Panda Mk3 is the Timex Atelier Chronograph Quartz M1q ($700) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Peanuts x Q Timex Snoopy 40mm at $259 (vs $599 for the Racing 40 Mechanical Panda Mk3) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the HOFFMAN Racing 40 Mechanical Graphite GCC is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seagull ST1901) and Same family (Racing 40). Stepping up, the Hanhart 415 ES Panda, 39 mm ($4,145) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
