The short answer

The closest alternative to the is the Tissot Heritage 1938 ($925) — same family (Heritage) and Vintage revival. If price is the constraint, the Aigi Watches BARENTS SEA AUTOMATIC round dive watch 43mm, applied markers + date + dive bezel at $180 (vs $486 for the ) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Heritage is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Same family (Heritage). Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto ($1,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
