The short answer

The closest alternative to the Shiro Kara Vintage Diver: Grey Sky is the Invicta Pro Diver 8927OB — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Skin-diver style. If price is the constraint, the Timex Peanuts x Timex Marlin Automatic Saxophonist 40mm at $339 (vs $688 for the Vintage Diver: Grey Sky) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Shiro Kara Vintage Diver: Nori is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Same family (shiro kara vintage diver). Stepping up, the Oris X RedBar Limited Edition II ($2,950) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
