Watches similar to Tag Heuer Autavia Chrono or Longines Spirit Flyback Chrono
Hello everyone. Was wondering if anybody knows watches similar to the ones mentioned above.
What I need: an aviator style watch with this kind of bezel (preferably, ceramic) and a well made movement. I believe there are not much of these on the market right now, but may be I am missing something.

I believe Maen only has the ones with fixed tachymeter bezel or hour bezel.
Why not save up for a Spirit? Try the great market.

I like the style but it’s too thick. And I would love a date, as well.

I don’t think we understand each other here.
My preference: Aviator Chronograph with timing bezel, date if possible, but not the watches I mentioned as a reference. This is why it is a reference.

Oops. Well, I was trying to help.
It would help if you could point out the things in the Tag and the Longines that are ruling them out for you. For example are you looking at a lower price point? Smaller form factor?

Tag is almost impossible to get in the stores. Longines is too thick I’m afraid. But overall, I would just like to know more options. For example, recently I found Breitling Aviator 8 with B01 movement.
Not sure where we stand on budget but this one fits the requirements perfectly if new is a must:

For me if you can go used this is ultimate choice ( there are other bicompax versions used available too ):

If budget is not there and flyback is a must I would go with this, no better option on the market:

I definitely understand wanting to gather all your options. But as for the Tag, it does seem to be available online, if you really have decided on that option:
The Bell & Ross V2-94 could be an option:

Sinn 356 pilot classic looks good but maybe a bit too thick for you

Not in my country. And I can’t really buy it on Chrono 24 because we have crazy import taxes here and I would have to pay around 2k on top for a 6k watch. But I appreciate the help.

What an interesting option. Thank you!
For those who are interested in finding a similar watch: I found out that Zodiac have a pretty diver-chrono that doesn’t look bulky - Sea-Chron.
