The short answer
The closest alternative to the Elliot Brown BEACHMASTER AUTOMATIC: Test slice is the Christopher Ward C60 Trident GMT 300 ($1,450) — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Tissot Seastar 1000 at $875 (vs $2,138 for the BEACHMASTER AUTOMATIC: Test slice) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Circula Watches AquaSport GMT is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW330-2) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Co Axial Master Chronometer 42mm ($6,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
