The short answer

The closest alternative to the Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5164 is the A. Lange & Söhne Odysseus — common cross-shop and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Fortis Marinemaster M-40 at $3,520 (vs $71,643 for the Aquanaut 5164) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Balticus Watches Balticus Żabnica is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Massena LAB Chronograph Monopoussoir Sylvain Pinaud x Massena LAB ($180,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
