The short answer

The closest alternative to the Seiko Prospex Sea is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($875) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Orient AA02 Diver Watch at $285 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Borealis Watch Co. Estoril 300 GMT is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Pro diver.
