The short answer

The closest alternative to the Boldr Five-in-a-Row is the Seiko Alpinist ($750) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Swatch The Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Summer Ed at $170 (vs $399 for the Five-in-a-Row) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BOLDR x Nitecore is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (NH35) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Seiko 62MAS ($1,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
