The short answer

The closest alternative to the Undone Chinese Hour Snake is the Invicta Pro Diver 8929OB — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko SCVE007 at $162 (vs $375 for the Chinese Hour Snake) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Undone Aero Worldtimer "Doolittle" is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and GMT/traveler. Stepping up, the Citizen Series 8 880 ($1,695) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
