The short answer
The closest alternative to the Farr + Swit Solar Chrono is the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER ($725) — pro diver and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Casio EFS-S650D at $250 (vs $550 for the Solar Chrono) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Sheffield Solar GT is the standout microbrand take — same family (Solar) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV-D Quartz ($1,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
