The closest alternative to the William Wood Fire Brigades Union Watch is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub 42mm Automatic Watch GL0092 ($1,450) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Orient Mako-3 AA08 Diver Watch at $375 (vs $820 for the Fire Brigades Union Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Out of Order TRECENTO is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Automatic. Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport GMT 42mm Automatic Watch GL0380 ($2,995) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
