The closest alternative to the Marathon JDD (Jumbo Day/Date) Anthracite Diver's Automatic is the Fortis Marinemaster M-44 DLC ($5,450) — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Sellita SW220-1). If price is the constraint, the Tissot Seastar 2000 at $1,275 (vs $3,250 for the JDD (Jumbo Day/Date) Anthracite Diver's Automatic) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Boldr Odyssey Original is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Fortis Marinemaster M-44 ($5,120) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
