The short answer
The closest alternative to the DIYWATCH Club A GMT Dive Watch set for those who loves a classic is the Seiko King Turtle ($650) — tool diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient Kanno at $320 (vs $690 for the A GMT Dive Watch set for those who loves a classic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the DIYWATCH Club 42mm GMT Dive Watch - Aluminium-Steel Hybrid GMT Bezel - DWC-D03 is the standout microbrand take — tool diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Tudor Pelagos FXD Chrono ($5,875) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
