The short answer

The closest alternative to the Bulova Blue Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Marine Star 98D184 is the Bulova Marine Star ($925) — same family (Marine Star) and Tool diver. If price is the constraint, the Orient Diver Watch at $285 (vs $750 for the Blue Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet Marine Star 98D184) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BOLDR Supply Co. Odyssey Pacific Blue is the standout microbrand take — tool diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the DOXA SUB 200 C-GRAPH II ($2,890) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
