The short answer

The closest alternative to the IXDAO 5305 Retro Professional Dive Watch is the Orient Diver Design 40 ($395) — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. From the independents, the Squale Super-Squale is the standout microbrand take — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Yema Diver ($990) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
