The short answer
The closest alternative to the Laco Genf 42 is the Yema Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force ($490) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Septante Blue covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Laco Zürich 42 is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Marathon Jeep Willys SSGPQ ($600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
