The short answer
The closest alternative to the AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph is the Yema Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force ($490) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Field Chronograph 43mm Leather Watch at $129 (vs $260 for the Spitfire Lock Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Geckota Chronotimer Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Glycine Airpilot Chrono ($1,895) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
