The short answer
The closest alternative to the Locke & King The James - Resilient Dandelion Yellow is the Timex Pan Am x Timex Waterbury Automatic Ace 41mm ($359) — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Sistem Sea at $170 (vs $437 for the The James - Resilient Dandelion Yellow) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Boderry Seaturtle Ocean Automatic is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Hamilton American Classic Pan Europ Day Date Auto ($1,345) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
