The short answer

The closest alternative to the BOLDR Supply Co. The Kraken by BOLDR x Nitecore is the Invicta Pro Diver 8926T-TF — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Skin-diver style. If price is the constraint, the Seiko SCVE053 at $207 (vs $449 for the The Kraken by BOLDR x Nitecore) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BOLDR x Nitecore is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Bremont Supermarine 300M ($3,550) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
