The short answer
The closest alternative to the Rockwell Time Kraken is the Breitling Superocean Automatic ($5,700) — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Reef at $995 (vs $7,500 for the Kraken) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Bamford of London D-300 Gloss Navy White Ceramic is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Linde Werdelin Oktopus Moon 3DTP ($26,667) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
