The short answer

The closest alternative to the Praesidus A-11 Origin is the Citizen Garrison ($338) — common cross-shop and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Action O Clock at $95 (vs $195 for the A-11 Origin) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Filippo Loreti Watches Folgore is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Ronda 763) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Marathon Jeep Willys SSGPQ ($600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
