The short answer

The closest alternative to the Vortic Watch Company Boston 068 is the Bell & Ross BR 01 INSTRUMENT DE MARINE ($8,532) — looks nearly identical and Sector dial. If price is the constraint, the Hamilton American Classic Spirit of Liberty Auto at $1,195 (vs $4,300 for the Boston 068) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vortic Watch Company Springfield 173 is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Sector dial. Stepping up, the Blancpain Métiers d'Art Grande Décoration ($83,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
