The short answer
The closest alternative to the AV86 1960 Racing Chronograph is the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER ($725) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio EFB-730D at $165 (vs $399 for the 1960 Racing Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Out of Order Sporty Cronografo is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 6S20) and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Omega Speedmaster Reduced Marui Limited Edition ($9,500) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
