The short answer

The closest alternative to the Caught Watches Arcana is the Casio EFV-160D ($120) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Timex Diver Inspired 42mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch at $82 (vs $194 for the Arcana) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Rosenbusch Quest RB200 is the standout microbrand take — looks nearly identical and Quartz. Stepping up, the Bulova Black Dial Stainless Steel Strap Sutton 96B403 ($395) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
