The short answer
The closest alternative to the Dryden Chrono Diver Hometown is the Citizen Promaster Navihawk ($446) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Kaicco at $135 (vs $349 for the Chrono Diver Hometown) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Atlas Dual Time Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Breitling Endurance Pro ($3,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
