The short answer

The closest alternative to the CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is the Seiko Prospex Sea 1968 Heritage Diver's GMT Watch Limited Edition ($1,750) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Seiko 62MAS at $1,200 (vs $2,458 for the 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Geckota Phalanx is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (ETA 2824-2). Stepping up, the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Co Axial Master Chronometer 42mm ($6,300) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
