The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0468 is the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0469 ($905) — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Same family (Airman). If price is the constraint, the Orient Symphony IV Lady's at $260 (vs $905 for the Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0468) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Zelos Spearfish GMT is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2). Stepping up, the Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Extreme GMT ($2,075) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
