The short answer
The closest alternative to the Magrette Kaitiaki is the Longines LEGEND DIVER 42 ($2,850) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1968 Heritage Diver's GMT at $1,500 (vs $3,200 for the Kaitiaki) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Marloe Watch Company Morar 310 is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Omega Seamaster 300 Co Axial Master Chronometer 41mm ($8,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
