The short answer
The closest alternative to the U-Boat CHIMERA DAMASCO BRONZE is the Breitling Avenger Automatic 45 Seawolf ($4,400) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 46mm Automatic Watch GL0278 at $1,530 (vs $5,250 for the CHIMERA DAMASCO BRONZE) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the U-Boat CHIMERA 46MM SS is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (ETA 2824-2) and Same family (CHIMERA). Stepping up, the Breitling Super Chronomat 44 Four Year Calendar ($17,450) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
