The short answer
The closest alternative to the Yema Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force is the Tissot Chrono L ($475) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Timex Weekender New England Chronograph 40mm Leather Strap Watch at $189 (vs $490 for the Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Chrono-Mecaquartz is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Quartz ($1,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
