The short answer

The closest alternative to the Dan Henry 1972 is the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II ($450) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Casio B650 at $46 (vs $370 for the 1972) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Geckota GT Racing Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Hamilton Jazzmaster Chrono Quartz ($1,075) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
