The short answer

The closest alternative to the Christopher Ward C65 Dune Aeolian is the Yema Diver ($990) — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1). If price is the constraint, the Damasko DK22 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the CWC RN81 Clearance Diver Automatic Watch is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1). Stepping up, the Longines LEGEND DIVER BRONZE ($3,550) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
