The short answer
The closest alternative to the ARES DIVER-1 GMT Swiss Automatic is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport 42mm Automatic Watch GL0392 ($1,550) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0323 at $585 (vs $2,850 for the DIVER-1 GMT Swiss Automatic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the ARES DIVER-1 Mission Timer Swiss Automatic is the standout microbrand take — same family (DIVER-1) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Co Axial Master Chronometer 42mm ($16,600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
