The short answer

The closest alternative to the Hemel The Hemel HFT20 / VK64 configuration / Navy Dial is the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief GMT 40mm Automatic Watch GL0303 ($600) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Field Post Solar at $209 (vs $450 for the The Hemel HFT20 / VK64 configuration / Navy Dial) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Hemel HFT20 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko VK64) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the DOXA SUB 300 Beta ($2,490) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
