The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0296 is the Hamilton Khaki Aviation X-Wind Day Date Auto ($1,375) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Prospex Sea The Black Series at $765 (vs $1,850 for the Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0296) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Melbourne Watch Company Fitzroy is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Breitling Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic ($5,800) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
