The short answer

The closest alternative to the Citizen AT9036-08E is the Timex Deepwater Reef 200 XCF 43mm Synthetic Rubber Strap Watch ($299) — common cross-shop and Tool diver. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Rugged Core Analog 43mm Resin Strap Watch at $87 (vs $492 for the AT9036-08E) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Luminox Pacific Diver 44mm is the standout microbrand take — tool diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Bulova Black Dial EPDM Rubber Strap Series X 98B358 ($4,750) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
