The short answer
The closest alternative to the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is the Seiko Prospex Sea 1970 Heritage Diver's Black Series Limited Edition ($3,300) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1968 Heritage Diver's GMT Watch Limited Edition at $1,750 (vs $3,747 for the 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (ETA 2824-2) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Nageurs de combat ($20,400) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
