The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pook Watches VCW Skin Diver is the Invicta Pro Diver 47720 — shared caliber (Miyota 8215) and Skin-diver style. If price is the constraint, the Seiko DressKX at $315 (vs $648 for the VCW Skin Diver) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Squale Super-Squale is the standout microbrand take — skin-diver style and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Tudor Black Bay 58 79030 ($4,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
