The short answer

The closest alternative to the Svalbard Time Travel HX21 is the Orient Bambino Version 8 ($295) — classic dress and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio MQ-24 at $30 (vs $180 for the Time Travel HX21) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Oblvlo AM-FG is the standout microbrand take — classic dress and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the LONGINES MASTER COLLECTION ($2,850) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
