The short answer

The closest alternative to the Ming 17.03 is the Ming 17.03 GMT — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Same family (17.03). If price is the constraint, the Glycine Airman Vintage The Chief GMT at $2,900 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Farer GMT BEZEL is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Looks nearly identical.
