The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pagani Design PD-1649 is the Orient FAA02008D9 ($265) — common cross-shop and Tool diver. From the independents, the BERNY BERNY-Men Automatic Diver Watch-AM09026M is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Sea PADI Special Edition ($650) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
