The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief GMT GL03xx Series is the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0413 ($650) — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Same family (Airman). If price is the constraint, the Seiko 5 Sports Automatic GMT Field Watch #HDB001 at $450 (vs $905 for the Men's Airman Vintage The Chief GMT GL03xx Series) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Formex Reef GMT is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport GMT Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0318 ($2,995) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
