The short answer

The closest alternative to the Towson Watch Co NORTH•er is the Glycine Men's Airman Contemporary GMT 42mm Automatic Watch GL0495 ($2,700) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0414 at $905 (vs $3,250 for the NORTH•er) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Marloe Watch Company SkySplitter is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Date Stainless Steel ($11,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
