Similar to Rolex

Hi guys
What would be Seiko's model more similar in appearance to the new Daytona 116500 from Rolex?

Those are just my suggestions.
You won’t find a Seiko chronograph with a ceramic bezel I don’t think

Possibly something vintage, from around the late 60s, early 70s. That's was Seiko's chronograph heyday, IMO, when they were pioneeering automatic chrono movements, like the 6139 and 6138.

Here's some light reading, if you're interested in exploring that avenue.
