The short answer

The closest alternative to the Trintec COM-02 Chronograph / Stainless is the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427 ($695) — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio EFB-730D at $165 (vs $500 for the COM-02 Chronograph / Stainless) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Trintec COM-02 Chronograph / Black is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota OS20) and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER ($2,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
