The short answer

The closest alternative to the Svalbard Traser AA55 is the Timex Deepwater Reef 200 41mm Synthetic Rubber Strap Watch ($239) — visually similar and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Casio AW-80 at $46 (vs $150 for the Traser AA55) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Svalbard Traser is the standout microbrand take — same family (Traser) and Looks nearly identical. Stepping up, the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Quartz ($1,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
