The short answer
The closest alternative to the Towson Watch Co Classic Chronograph is the IWC Schaffhausen Iw501705 Portugieser Automatic ($13,900) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient Classic Semi Skeleton at $670 (vs $10,000 for the Classic Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Manufaktur Waldhoff Multimatic is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the IWC Schaffhausen Iw344202 Portugieser Perpetual Calendar ($27,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
