The short answer

The closest alternative to the HELM Komodo is the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch ($370) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. From the independents, the HELM Vanuatu is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko Instruments NH35) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Oris Divers Sixty‑Five 12h Calibre 400 ($4,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
