The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pagani Design PD-1821 is the Swatch Sistem Lake ($230) — visually similar and Sunburst dial. From the independents, the Zelos Spearfish 3 is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Yema Superman Dato CMM.10 ($1,777) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
