The short answer
The closest alternative to the Out of Order Desert Rose Chrono is the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER ($750) — racing chrono and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Swatch MoonSwatch Mission to Saturn at $285 (vs $600 for the Desert Rose Chrono) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Out of Order Night Ops Chrono is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko VK63) and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Chronograph Sport 43mm Quartz Watch GL1045 ($1,295) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
