The short answer
The closest alternative to the Lum-Tec Combat B73 is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Vintage Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0420 ($615) — common cross-shop and Same family (Combat). If price is the constraint, the Orient FAA02007B9 at $265 (vs $545 for the Combat B73) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Lum-Tec Combat B72 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Ronda 515) and Same family (Combat). Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0244 ($1,530) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
