The short answer
The closest alternative to the Newmark 6BB Hydrographic Service (HS) Chronograph is the Nivada Grenchen Chronoking Mecaquartz ($610) — shared caliber (Seiko VK64) and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Timex Weekender New England Chronograph 40mm Leather Strap Watch at $189 (vs $676 for the 6BB Hydrographic Service (HS) Chronograph) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Newmark 6BB NP Professional Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko VK64) and Same family (6BB). Stepping up, the Omega Speedmaster 38 Co Axial Chronometer Chronograph 38mm ($5,900) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
