The short answer

The closest alternative to the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0470 is the Glycine Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0471 ($905) — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Same family (Airman). If price is the constraint, the Orient Retrograde at $415 (vs $905 for the Men's Airman Vintage The Chief Purist 40mm Automatic Watch GL0470) covers most of the same brief.
