The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pagani Design PD-1753 is the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch ($370) — common cross-shop and Skin-diver style. From the independents, the Zelos Spearfish 3 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Skin-diver style. Stepping up, the Orient 75th Anniversary RA-AC0Q12L30B ($405) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
