The short answer

The closest alternative to the Resco Manus Chronograph - Panda (Stainless/DLC option) is the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER ($750) — racing chrono and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Swatch In the Mirror at $235 (vs $985 for the Manus Chronograph - Panda (Stainless/DLC option)) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) Sea Falcon Watch is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Visually similar. Stepping up, the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph ($2,475) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
