The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pook Watches Pookwatches TBL Thin Blue Line is the Timex Pan Am x Timex Waterbury Automatic Ace 41mm ($359) — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient Symphony III at $240 (vs $499 for the Pookwatches TBL Thin Blue Line) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Brillier Airborne X1 42 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Hamilton American Classic Spirit of Liberty Auto ($1,195) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
