The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Airman Worldtimer 42mm Quartz Watch GL1033 is the Glycine Men's Airman Worldtimer 42mm Quartz Watch GL1040 ($1,395) — same family (Men's) and GMT/traveler. If price is the constraint, the Tissot Ballade at $400 (vs $1,395 for the Men's Airman Worldtimer 42mm Quartz Watch GL1033) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Mecaquartz is the standout microbrand take — gMT/traveler and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGV245 ($3,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
