The short answer

The closest alternative to the Orient Mako-3 AA08 Diver Watch is the Orient Kamasu ($375) — shared caliber (F6922) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Swatch The Swatch Sistem51 Hodinkee Summer Ed at $170 (vs $375 for the Mako-3 AA08 Diver Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Dryden Pathfinder is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Citizen Promaster Fujitsubo ($1,195) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
