The short answer

The closest alternative to the Trintec NAV-03 Directional Gyro / Black / Automatic is the Bulova Multiple Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Maquina 98A320 ($925) — tonneau / barrel case and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Recraft Series at $265 (vs $550 for the NAV-03 Directional Gyro / Black / Automatic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Trintec NAV-03 Horizon / Black / Automatic is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Cushion case. Stepping up, the Fears Brunswick 40.5 Jump Hour ($4,498) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
