The short answer

The closest alternative to the HELM Miyako is the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch ($370) — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Swatch The Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Summer Ed at $170 (vs $375 for the Miyako) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Henry Archer Nordsø is the standout microbrand take — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Seiko 62MAS ($1,200) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
