The short answer

The closest alternative to the Laco Luzern is the Marathon CeraShell Pilot's Navigator ($550) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Acadia 40mm Fabric Strap Watch at $91 (vs $410 for the Luzern) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV-D Quartz ($1,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
