The short answer

The closest alternative to the Luch Simple 2.0 is the Orient Bambino No Date ($295) — looks nearly identical and Same size. If price is the constraint, the Timex Easy Reader 35mm Leather Strap Watch at $75 (vs $173 for the Simple 2.0) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Luch Mekhanika is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (1801.1) and Same family (Часы). Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical ($725) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
