The short answer
The closest alternative to the Rolex Yacht-Master is the Rolex Yacht-Master ($12,500) — shared caliber (2236) and Same family (Yacht-Master). If price is the constraint, the Tudor Black Bay 58 79030 at $4,000 (vs $16,050 for the Yacht-Master) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Certina DS Action Diver 38mm Powermatic 80 is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Rolex Yacht-Master ($32,500) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
