The short answer

The closest alternative to the Serica Ref. 5303 Diving Chronometer is the Glycine Combat Sub Sport ($1,850) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch at $370 (vs $1,768 for the Ref. 5303 Diving Chronometer) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Serica Ref. 5330 Diving Chronometer Date is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Soprod M100) and Same family (Diving Chronometer). Stepping up, the Bremont Supermarine 300M ($3,550) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
