The short answer

The closest alternative to the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427 is the Tissot T-Race ($650) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Waterbury Ace Fly-Back Chronograph 43mm Leather Strap Watch at $289 (vs $695 for the Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Ferro AGL 2 Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Seiko Astron GPS Solar 2025 Limited Edition ($2,900) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
