The short answer
The closest alternative to the STEELDIVE SD1973S is the Orient Diver Watch ($285) — common cross-shop and Pro diver. From the independents, the Revelot R11 Darkside is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Seiko NH35) and Pro diver. Stepping up, the Glycine Men's Combat Sub Sport Bronze 42mm Automatic Watch GL0325 ($615) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
