The short answer

The closest alternative to the Erebus Watches ORIGIN 40 is the Orient AC0Q Diver II LE ($395) — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch The Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Summer Ed at $170 (vs $399 for the ORIGIN 40) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Vaer D5 Tropic Auto is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9015) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Tudor Black Bay 58 ($5,350) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
