The short answer
The closest alternative to the Boldr Five-in-a-Row is the Glycine Unisex Combat Sub Bronze 39mm Automatic Watch GL0517 ($1,550) — 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 Supply Co. Five In A Row II is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Seiko 62MAS ($1,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
