The short answer

The closest alternative to the Ollech & Wajs C-1000 Y is the Nivada Grenchen Depthmaster ($1,050) — pro diver and Visually similar. If price is the constraint, the Orient Diver Design 40 at $395 (vs $1,996 for the C-1000 Y) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Olech & Wajs Watches C-1000 is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Soprod Newton P092) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Breitling Superocean Heritage B01 Chronograph ($10,600) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
