The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0278 is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch ($1,650) — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Same family (Combat). If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0257 at $650 (vs $1,530 for the Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0278) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the U-Boat SOMMERSO 46MM BRONZO is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub GMT 46mm Automatic Watch GL0332 ($3,195) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
