The short answer

The closest alternative to the Certina DS Action Diver 43mm Powermatic 80 (Titanium) is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($875) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0322 at $585 (vs $1,230 for the DS Action Diver 43mm Powermatic 80 (Titanium)) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Certina DS Action Diver 43mm Powermatic 80 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (POWERMATIC 80.611) and Same family (DS). Stepping up, the Bremont S502 ($5,100) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
