The short answer

The closest alternative to the Cincinnati Watch Company Springtime is the Nivada Grenchen F77 MK2 38mm Automatic ($1,360) — common cross-shop and Vintage revival. If price is the constraint, the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Longhorn 96A334 at $750 (vs $1,995 for the Springtime) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Cincinnati Watch Company Silver Beauty - Year of the Horse is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW210-1) and Vintage revival. Stepping up, the Ming x J.N. Shapiro 37.06 Lightning ($8,800) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
