36 watches that match on case size, movement family, and price band. Sorted by how close the match is.
The closest alternative to the Pagani Design PD-1718 is the Seiko Essentials Chronograph ($265) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Casio AW-80 at $46 (vs $138 for the PD-1718) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Sheffield Chrono II is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko VK64) and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Tissot PR516 ($575) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
Independent makers covering the same brief — usually with something the mainstream brands don't.
Established brands covering the same brief at a comparable price — same case size, similar movement family. Often the deciding click for a new buyer.
If the price is the only thing keeping you off this watch, these get you most of the way there for less.
Where the same idea goes when budget isn't the constraint — luxury upgrades and step-ups.
