The short answer

The closest alternative to the Zelos ZX-3 Meteorite Mechaquartz Chronograph is the Glycine Combat Sub Chronograph Sport ($1,295) — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Essentials Chronograph at $265 (vs $699 for the ZX-3 Meteorite Mechaquartz Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Zelos ZX-3 Meteorite Automatic Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Valjoux 7750) and Same family (ZX-3 Meteorite). Stepping up, the Citizen ATTESA ($1,995) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
