The closest alternative to the Viribus Unitis 1918 is the DOXA SUB 300 ($2,890) — visually similar and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Field 42mm Automatic Watch GL0567 at $700 (vs $1,881 for the 1918) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Audaz ADZ-3070 is the standout microbrand take — visually similar and Automatic. Stepping up, the Bremont Supermarine 500M ($4,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
