The short answer

The closest alternative to the Oceaneva Deep Marine Explorer GMT 1250m is the Glycine Combat Sub Sport ($1,650) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient AA02 Diver Watch at $285 (vs $649 for the Deep Marine Explorer GMT 1250m) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Oceaneva GMT Titanium Automatic Deep Marine Explorer 1250M is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH34) and Same family (Deep Marine Explorer). Stepping up, the DOXA SUB 300 ($2,890) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
