The short answer

The closest alternative to the Kobold Globetrotter is the Stowa Partitio Classic — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Orient Bambino No Date at $295 (vs $750 for the Globetrotter) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the KIWAME TOKYO ASAKUSA MUNE is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the Bremont Terra Nova 38 ($3,050) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
