The short answer

The closest alternative to the Certina DS-X GMT is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport 42mm Quartz Watch GL1013 ($995) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Diver Inspired 42mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch at $82 (vs $643 for the DS-X GMT) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vaer DS2 Meridian Quartz is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200 Solargraph ($3,600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
