The short answer

The closest alternative to the Armand Nicolet J09 Chronograph A668AAA is the Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONOGRAPH ($3,650) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Hamilton Jazzmaster Auto Chrono at $2,095 (vs $4,268 for the J09 Chronograph A668AAA) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Mühle-Glashütte Teutonia II Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronosprint X Porsche ($9,550) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
