The short answer

The closest alternative to the Aquatico 43mm Bronze Pilot Watch is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Vintage Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0265 ($615) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Sistem Sea at $170 (vs $399 for the 43mm Bronze Pilot Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the U-Boat SOMMERSO 46MM BRONZO is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Christopher Ward C60 Pro 300 Vintage ($1,550) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
