The short answer

The closest alternative to the Orient AK00 Version 3 Classic Watch is the Seiko Presage Inspired by Japanese Gardens ($595) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch The Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Summer Ed at $170 (vs $450 for the AK00 Version 3 Classic Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Oblvlo AM-FG is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Tissot Telemeter 1938 ($2,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
