The short answer
The closest alternative to the Islander Republic Traveler GMT Watch with Black Dial #ISL-276 is the Seiko 5 Sports Field series ($450) — gMT/traveler and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko SCVE053 at $207 (vs $695 for the Republic Traveler GMT Watch with Black Dial #ISL-276) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Jack Mason Strat-o-timer GMT is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9075) and GMT/traveler. Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGM245 ($6,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
