The short answer

The closest alternative to the Echo/Neutra 1956 3H is the Glycine Sea Kraken ($1,600) — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Skin-diver style. If price is the constraint, the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch at $370 (vs $1,025 for the 1956 3H) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vero Watch Company Open Water 41 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Lumière ($2,570) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
