The short answer
The closest alternative to the RGM Watches Model 500 GMT is the Glycine Men's Airman Purist 42mm Automatic Watch GL0141 ($2,500) — pro diver and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief GMT 40mm Automatic Watch GL0303 at $600 (vs $4,450 for the Model 500 GMT) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Memphis Belle Freccione is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (ETA 2893-2) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M Co Axial Master Chronometer 42mm ($8,600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
