The short answer

The closest alternative to the AETHELSOHN Horizon Shadow GMT Automatic Watch is the Bulova Black Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Vintage Sea Hunter 43B175 ($395) — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. From the independents, the AETHELSOHN Horizon Azure GMT - Blue Dial Automatic Watch with Dual Time is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH34) and Same family (Horizon). Stepping up, the Longines LEGEND DIVER ($3,850) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
