The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Airman Worldtimer 42mm Quartz Watch GL1039 is the Glycine Men's Airman Worldtimer 42mm Quartz Watch GL1038 ($1,395) — shared caliber (Ronda 515) and Same family (Men's). If price is the constraint, the Citizen World Chronograph A-T at $581 (vs $1,395 for the Men's Airman Worldtimer 42mm Quartz Watch GL1039) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Lum-Tec B71 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Ronda 515). Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGN027 ($3,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
