The short answer

The closest alternative to the Lum-Tec Combat B72 is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0091 ($540) — common cross-shop and Same family (Combat). If price is the constraint, the Orient AA02 Diver Watch at $285 (vs $595 for the Combat B72) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Lum-Tec Combat B73 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Ronda 515) and Same family (Combat). Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0084 ($1,450) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
