The short answer
The closest alternative to the Formex Stratos UTC is the Grand Seiko SBGM245 ($6,100) — gMT/traveler and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Presage Style60's at $650 (vs $4,663 for the Stratos UTC) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BOLDR Supply Co. GMT Maasai Mara is the standout microbrand take — gMT/traveler and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Rolex Sky-Dweller ($17,750) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
