The short answer

The closest alternative to the Mondaine Classic is the Mondaine Classic 36mm ($188) — shared caliber (Ronda 513) and Same family (Classic,). If price is the constraint, the Casio Enticer MTP-1302 at $67 (vs $188 for the Classic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Sternglas Sedius is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Classic dress. Stepping up, the NOMOS Glashütte Ludwig automatic ($3,670) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
