The short answer

The closest alternative to the Vaer G2 Apocalypse GMT is the Tissot Seastar 1000 GMT ($575) — common cross-shop and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Timex Waterbury Traditional GMT 39mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch - TW2Y29700 at $187 (vs $399 for the G2 Apocalypse GMT) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vaer G2 Meridian GMT is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Ronda 515 GMT) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGN027 ($3,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
