The short answer
The closest alternative to the Orient Star Diver is the Orient RA-AC0K Diver Watch ($455) — same family (Diver) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Orient AA02 Diver Watch at $285 (vs $585 for the Diver) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Duxot Tortuga is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1970 Heritage Diver's Black Series Limited Edition ($3,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
