The short answer

The closest alternative to the Orient Star M42 Diver 1964 1st Edition F6 Date 200m is the Yema Superman Heritage ($1,004) — vintage revival and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Orient AC0Q Diver II LE at $395 (vs $1,350 for the M42 Diver 1964 1st Edition F6 Date 200m) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Wolbrook Skindiver Automatic is the standout microbrand take — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Yema Skin Diver CMM.20 ($2,372) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
