The short answer

The closest alternative to the Seagull Qingjia Series Shards of Time Dress Watch 40mm is the Seiko Presage Cocktail Time ($475) — dress and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient Bambino Version 2 at $270 (vs $519 for the Qingjia Series Shards of Time Dress Watch 40mm) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Seagull Bauhaus Style Dress Watch 40mm is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seagull ST2130) and Same family (Dress Watch). Stepping up, the Frederique Constant Manufacture Classic Moonphase Date ($4,895) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
