The short answer
The closest alternative to the Makoto Watches SHIZEN – 38MM – DLC Coated Field Watch – Fixed Lugs is the Stowa Fieldwatch Terra Desert — skin-diver style and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Casio Edifice EFK-100D covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Newmark Waterking is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 9039) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Blancpain Bathyscaphe ($12,500) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
