The short answer

The closest alternative to the STEELDIVE SD1959S is the Invicta Pro Diver 18160 — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Pro diver. From the independents, the Boldr Odyssey Bronze is the standout microbrand take — common cross-shop and Shared caliber (Seiko NH35). Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport GMT Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0318 ($2,995) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
