The short answer
The closest alternative to the Islander JFK Automatic GMT Watch with Cherry Blossom Dial #ISL-337 is the Timex Expedition Pioneer Titanium Automatic GMT ($629) — shared caliber (Seiko NH34) and Tool diver. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Am51 at $170 (vs $429 for the JFK Automatic GMT Watch with Cherry Blossom Dial #ISL-337) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Islander JFK Automatic GMT Watch with Sunset Orange Dial #ISL-356 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH34) and Tool diver. Stepping up, the Breitling Superocean Automatic ($5,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
