The short answer

The closest alternative to the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith 24-Hour Automatic Paddy Limited Edition is the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Air Race Auto ($845) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Body Soul Leather at $200 (vs $425 for the Spitfire Smith 24-Hour Automatic Paddy Limited Edition) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Praesidus Psywar Mk.1 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Pilot Auto ($1,125) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
