The short answer
The closest alternative to the Longines Spirit Zulu Time 39mm Gold is the Glycine Airman Vintage Noon Purist ($3,500) — gMT/traveler and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Converter Auto at $1,345 (vs $5,000 for the Spirit Zulu Time 39mm Gold) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Brillier GMT (DUAL TIME) Mechanical Automatic Round 38 mm Gold Case Black Face is the standout microbrand take — gMT/traveler and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Bremont Longitude Limited Edition ($18,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
