The short answer

The closest alternative to the Praesidus Swiss-made Soprod P024 36mm is the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Pilot Auto ($1,125) — common cross-shop and Pilot. If price is the constraint, the Orient FNR1Q002W0 at $165 (vs $595 for the Swiss-made Soprod P024 36mm) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the AVI-8 Hawker Harrier Pegasus Automatic is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Pilot. Stepping up, the Bremont Terra Nova 38 ($3,050) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
