The short answer

The closest alternative to the Laco Engadin is the Glycine Men's Airpilot 41mm Quartz Watch GL0515 ($895) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Field Chronograph 43mm Leather Watch at $129 (vs $520 for the Engadin) 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 Glycine Men's Airpilot GMT 44mm Quartz Watch GL0435 ($1,395) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
