The short answer

The closest alternative to the Kobold Soarway Diver Safari is the Bremont Supermarine 500M ($4,700) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0390 at $615 (vs $6,050 for the Soarway Diver Safari) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Kobold Soarway Diver 43 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (ETA 2824-2) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Blancpain Bathyscaphe ($35,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
