The short answer

The closest alternative to the Signum Cuda is the Seiko Prospex Sea JAWS 50th Anniversary Limited Edition ($795) — pro diver and Art dial. If price is the constraint, the Aigi Watches BARENTS SEA AUTOMATIC at $180 (vs $499 for the Cuda) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Spinnaker Popeye is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Atelier Caradant CityMaps ($1,180) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
