The short answer
The closest alternative to the Cronos Watchdives WD1969 PRO 38mm VH31 Dive Watch is the Timex Diver Inspired 42mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch ($82) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Scout 40mm Leather Strap Watch - TW4B34000 at $46 (vs $99 for the Watchdives WD1969 PRO 38mm VH31 Dive Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Thorn Watchdives WD7922 37mm VH31 Watch is the standout microbrand take — same family (Watchdives) and Skin-diver style.
