The short answer

The closest alternative to the Knot Watches SAC-40SSV is the Tissot Seastar 1000 ($515) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Casio MDV-106 Duro at $85 (vs $296 for the SAC-40SSV) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Thorn Watchdives WD1969B PRO 38mm VH31 Dive Watch is the standout microbrand take — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Grand Seiko SBGP015 ($3,800) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
