The short answer

The closest alternative to the Second Hour Giant Stride is the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Box Ceramic 41mm Automatic Watch ($705) — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Timex Expedition Rugged Core Analog 43mm Resin Strap Watch at $87 (vs $505 for the Giant Stride) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Seaholm Offshore is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Sellita SW200-1) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport 42mm Automatic Watch GL0393 ($1,750) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
