The short answer

The closest alternative to the Ferro Distinct 2 is the Hamilton Jazzmaster Gent Quartz ($745) — common cross-shop and Classic dress. If price is the constraint, the Timex Waterbury Traditional Fly Back Chronograph 43mm Stainless Steel Bracel - TW2Y29800 at $187 (vs $445 for the Distinct 2) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Ferro & Company DISTINCT 2 BLUE is the standout microbrand take — same family (Distinct) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Hamilton American Classic Spirit of Liberty Auto ($1,195) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
