The short answer

The closest alternative to the Longines FLAGSHIP CLASSIC is the Longines MASTER COLLECTION ($2,350) — shared caliber (Longines L592.5) and Classic dress. If price is the constraint, the Tissot Bellissima at $875 (vs $1,800 for the FLAGSHIP CLASSIC) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Seagull Lady's Series Flower Dial Dress Watch 27mm is the standout microbrand take — classic dress and Visually similar. Stepping up, the TAG Heuer Carrera Date ($3,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
