The short answer
The closest alternative to the Spinnaker Croft 42 Skeleton is the Orient Diver Watch ($285) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Uncle Charly Leather at $200 (vs $435 for the Croft 42 Skeleton) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Audaz ADZ-4020 is the standout microbrand take — pro diver and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Seiko Prospex Sea 1968 Heritage Diver's GMT Watch ($1,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
