The short answer

The closest alternative to the Certina DS Action Diver 43mm Powermatic 80 is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($875) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Invicta Pro Diver 5053OBXL covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Certina DS Action Diver 43mm Powermatic 80 (Titanium) 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.
