The short answer

The closest alternative to the Venezianico Nereide Aureo 42 is the Yema Diver ($990) — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Glycine Unisex Combat Sub Bronze 39mm Automatic Watch GL0517 at $1,550 (vs $1,495 for the Nereide Aureo 42) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Venezianico Nereide Bronzo is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Same family (Nereide). Stepping up, the Fortis Flieger F-41 ($2,530) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
