The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pagani Design PD-YS023 is the Seiko Essentials Automatic ($315) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio Enticer MTP-1302 at $67 (vs $173 for the PD-YS023) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Specht & Sohne Specht & Söhne SP0016 Automatic is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Tissot Gentleman ($950) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
