The short answer

The closest alternative to the Oceanica Watch Co. Thresher is the Invicta Pro Diver 5053 — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Skin-diver style. From the independents, the Filippo Loreti Watches Aquadiver is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Longines LEGEND DIVER ($3,850) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
