Surely its more down to the movement layout than the aesthetic design?
From memory I think Universal made their movement for the Compax, Zenith made a variation for their own watches and then Lemania and Omega took the best bits of the UG and Zenith to create the 321 movement that was used in the early speedmasters.
All of those movements, while having some big differences to each other, maintained the same sub dial layout...not sure there is much you can do design wise with the 9, 6 3 sub dial layout...they're all going to look pretty similar.
