The short answer

The closest alternative to the Certina DS Action Diver Chrono is the Tissot Seastar 2000 ($1,275) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Orient 75th Anniversary RA-TX0210L10B at $375 (vs $2,219 for the DS Action Diver Chrono) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Swiss Watch Company SWC Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Blancpain Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback Ocean Commitment I ($26,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
