The short answer

The closest alternative to the Tissot PR516 is the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER Mechanical Chronograph ($2,500) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER at $750 (vs $2,150 for the PR516) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Baltic Scalegraph is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Bremont Altitude Chronograph ($6,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
