The short answer

The closest alternative to the Sternglas Tachymeter 2.0 is the Tissot Chrono XL Classic ($495) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio EFR-574DE at $220 (vs $449 for the Tachymeter 2.0) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Filippo Loreti Watches Ascari Monza Two Tone is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko VK63) and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Glycine Combat Sub Chronograph Sport ($1,295) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
