The short answer

The closest alternative to the AVI-8 Flyboy Airmaster GMT Automatic is the Bremont Fury ($7,250) — looks nearly identical and Sector dial. If price is the constraint, the Swatch The Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Summer Ed at $170 (vs $365 for the Flyboy Airmaster GMT Automatic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the PAROS Transatlantic GMT aviator world-timer GMT, crown-guard case + inner rotating bezel, full Arabic 24h numeral ring is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH34) and GMT/traveler. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Land Mechanical GMT ($1,150) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
