The short answer

The closest alternative to the Victorinox Swiss Army Chronograph is the Tissot PRC 200 ($595) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio EFB-730D at $165 (vs $800 for the Swiss Army Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Geckota Chronotimer Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph X Indy 500 ($2,750) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
